A new study is showing the power of faith. According to a survey from the Pew Research Center, 70% of American “nones,“ that’s people with no religious affiliation, still believe in God or a higher power.
This comes as the number of “nuns,” meaning religious sisters, is dropping across the country. According to a projection from the U.S. bishops’ conference, the amount of religious men and women in the U.S. will drop over 50% in the next decade.
National Correspondent for The Tablet and Crux, John Lavenburg, breaks down the numbers and what they all mean.
