大多数基督徒经历过属灵怀疑 千禧一代更容易质疑信仰

巴纳最近一项研究表明,绝大多数美国基督徒承认对信仰持有疑问。

当那些自称为基督徒或曾是基督徒的人被问及是否“曾经历过属灵怀疑,质疑所相信的宗教或神时”,巴纳发现大约65%的美国基督徒承认有过。

40%的受访者表示经历过怀疑,26%的人说仍在经历怀疑。

同时,35%的美国基督徒说,他们从未质疑过信仰。

美国千禧一代的基督徒(38%)比其他任何一代人(23%的X一代,19%的婴儿潮一代,20%的老一代)更有可能质疑信仰。

报告认为,这很大程度上在于千禧一代在比上几代更为多元化和世俗化的文化中长大成人。

巴纳还发现,千禧一代质疑信仰时,更有可能停止敬拜,不再读经、祷告,和/或停止与家人朋友谈论属灵问题。

报告指出:“千禧一代比其他几代人更有可能会停止上述所有活动,而且比一般族群的比例要高得多。”

值得注意的是,超过一半(53%)自称是基督徒的人说,他们经历过怀疑后,信仰变得更坚定。然而,12%的人说经历怀疑后丢掉了信仰。

其他调查结果显示,经历怀疑的期间,最常见的求助对象是“亲朋好友”,40%的人从他们那里寻求帮助。接下来最多的求助对象是圣经(29%),紧接着是教会(22%)、配偶(19%)和牧师等属灵领袖(18%)。

6月5日至9日期间,巴纳在线访问了1015名年龄为18岁及以上的美国成年人。期中受访者中有888名基督徒或曾经的基督徒,误差率为正负3.1个百分点。

近年来,美国千禧一代的宗教背景大幅下降。

去年9月,公共宗教研究所(Public Religion Research Institute,简称PRRI)发布一项调查报告,发现近40%年纪介于18至29岁的美国人无宗教归属。

PRRI研究人员去年解释说:“无宗教归属率上升的重要原因之一是因为更年轻的美国人在无宗教信仰的家庭中长大,比过去时代的年轻人更不容易参加宗教传统或教派。”

“50岁以下,在无宗教环境中长大的美国人中大约有四分之三(74%)表示成人期间缺乏宗教认同。相比之下,只有大约一半(49%)50岁或以上在非宗教环境下成长的美国人仍然认同这一点。”
