3. No, this is a myth promulgated by conservative Christians of different denominations

I heard Eberstadt's interview, and found her more than a little scary. And wrong, in the sense that there is little factual evidence supporting her position.

The same argument is made in Episcopal church disagreements, but there is literally no proof that it is true. Studies done by Faith Community Today, which I will post separately, show that individual conservative and individual liberal churches can both be very successful. Overall, however, US church attendance is declining, affecting all faiths, including non-Christians as well.
