The Barna Group, a firm that studies faith in American life, released the findings of a survey matching Christians up with those who have “no faith.”
The firm found that most atheists and agnostics (56%) think radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam. In addition, the faithless, who comprise 9% percent of the population, are less likely than the faithful to volunteer, participate in community activities and donate to charitable causes. Atheists and agnostics are also less likely to report being “at peace” and are more likely to feel stressed out.
In other words, on the whole the faithless have a warped idea of reality, are selfish with their time and money, and are generally unhappy campers. Just what we would expect.
