A Strange Faith -- Are Church-Going Kids Christian? "A strange god indeed.... [George] Barna revealed this stunning fact: 63 percent of church-going, supposedly Christian teens said they believed 'Muslims, Buddhists, Christians, Jews and all other people pray to the same God, even though they use different names for their god....

"Apparently, many church-going teens are not being challenged by the preaching and teaching of the true Gospel. How else can one explain the overwhelming assumption among teens that they are Christian, when they clearly are not?...

"...very few of the nation's youth appear to be Bible-believing Christians.... Barna found that only 4 percent of U.S. teens can be considered evangelicals. More distressingly, that number is actually trending in the wrong direction. ... How could teenagers who go to church so often know so little -- or at least believe so little -- of the historic Christian faith? And whose fault is it?"
