Most Protestants Are No Longer Protestant

. . .but do Protestants today even believe in these doctrines?  A fascinating pair of Pew surveys, marking the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, decided to find out by surveying large numbers of Protestants in the U.S. & in eight different Western European countries.  The results were fascinating. . .

The Most Unexpectedly Religious Film of the Year
