Bible sales up. Church attendance rising. Revival whispers loud.

After years of more and more Americans claiming atheism, agnosticism or “nothing in particular” in religiosity, there are signs that the category is leveling off at 29% of the population, while at the same time, the continual decline of Americans who self-identify as Christians appears to have reached a plateau, according to a new study from Pew Research Center.

Slightly more than 6 in 10 of the 36,908 respondents in the Religious Landscape Study released in February consider themselves to be Christians.

Though that represents a 9-percentage-point drop from a decade ago, the stability is now a trend, Pew says. For the past five years, from 2019 through 2024, the Christian share of the adult population has remained between 60% and 64%, instead of sliding further downward.

Colorado’s wolf plan ignores the one thing wolves don’t: borders

The Fence Post, Approved, National, State / / , , , , ,

Over the last month, two of Colorado’s latest gray wolf transplants were killed after crossing the border into Wyoming. 

Colorado Parks and Wildlife expects these types of movements into other states from the reintroduced wolf population. The species is known for traveling long distances in search of food or mates. 

However, once the wolves leave Colorado, they lose certain protections afforded to them by both state and federal laws. But just how those protections change, and what might happen to them, depends entirely on which way they travel.

Joondeph: Democrats are dying on the most unpopular hills in politics

American Thinker, Commentary, National, Top Stories / / , , , ,

The phrase “the hill you choose to die on” is an expression meaning a belief, opinion, or position that one is fiercely committed to defending, even when it is impractical or contrary to one’s long-term goals. It suggests a willingness to fight or resist to the point of losing, rather than pivoting, conceding, or compromising.

In the political world, most players lack conviction or principles. They are swayed by the political winds, the latest opinion polls, or the size of the most recent campaign contributions they receive. Their positions are primarily situational, influenced by their proximity to the next reelection bid or which Sunday morning talk show has invited them as guests.

Democrats, finding themselves in the minority during President Donald Trump’s second term, are attempting to stem their political bleeding by choosing odd hills to stand on in an effort to bolster their political appeal ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. Fortunately for Trump and his party, Democrats are selecting sinkholes rather than hills.

Lee and Friday: We saved our daughters—HB25-1312 would’ve punished us as child abusers

The Wall Street Journal, Approved, Commentary, National, State, Top Stories / / , , , , , ,

We are both mothers whose daughters went through a phase in which they believed they were boys. We never affirmed that belief, although their schools and much of the broader culture did. Eventually, our daughters recognized their true identities and ceased identifying themselves as “transgender.”

A bill under consideration in Colorado (where Ms. Lee lives) would define parents like us as child abusers.

Operation Take Back America: Illegal immigrants charged after hauling 180K rounds of ammo into Colorado

CBS Colorado, Approved, Local, National / / , , , , ,

Two residents of Mexico were recently arrested in Colorado while transporting 180,000 rounds of large-caliber ammunition. They were pulled over after driving toward deputies and failing to dim their van’s headlights. 

Two Fremont County detectives were driving on State Highway 50 in Cañon City on March 26, according to a federal arrest affidavit. The van was coming in the opposite direction and left its headlights on the highest setting as it passed the deputies’ vehicle. It is against Colorado state law for a driver to fail to dim his or her vehicle’s headlights when there is oncoming traffic within 500 feet of it.
