New 2026 data from Pew Research, the Survey Center on American Life, and religion analyst Ryan Burge reveals a more complex picture of religious disaffiliation than most headlines suggest — including a surprising reversal in who’s actually leaving.
In this video, we break down:
– Pew’s finding that Christian decline may finally be leveling off
– The stark generational gap: why Gen Z is far less religious than older Americans
– The surprising gender flip — women now leave religion more than men, reversing decades of the opposite trend
– Why the LDS/Mormon Church just reported its first-ever US membership decline
– The real reasons people cite for leaving: doctrinal disbelief, "church hurt," and unmet spiritual needs
– Why about half of young adults who leave eventually return
We’re sticking to credible, sourced data — not sensationalized claims — to give you the real picture of religious change in America today.
