A new national survey shows that an overwhelming majority of Millennials (18-34 year-olds) support religious and other social freedoms. A surprising result in light of the constant protesting and other outrages young Americans seem determined to perpetrate on the rest of us trying to live our lives.
The survey found that 93 percent of Millennials support religious freedom and nearly the same number (92 percent) support free speech. Not what you’d expect if one looks at the news.
“The media keeps showing us images of violent protests on college campuses, young Americans being angry and disruptive, but the truth is that millennials support religious and social freedoms more than non-millennials,” said Roger Ream, President, The Fund for American Studies (TFAS). “There’s a vast, silent majority of millennials who embrace these freedoms and those are the young men and women we are seeing in our programs.”
