    I looked it up, in 2019 65% of Americans identified as Christian, but it's been steeply declining. So, it's about what I'd expect.

      Huh, that's lower than I remembered. Interesting. I guess 77% does make more sense in light of that, yeah.

      Weird that the number of angel believers would be higher than the percentage of chirstians. I assume Jews and Muslims (Islam has angels yes?) don't make up the difference. Like where do they think the angels come from?

        77% is probably an older figure from when America was more religious

        edit: wait, it says "A majority of non-Christians think angels exist" so I might be back to thinking the study fucked up or is being presented in a misleading way or something. Like, people took "angels" in a metaphorical sense or something.
