An interesting poll is being reported on in the latest TIME - Christianity's image is waning - and is waning even among Christians!

So what is behind it? I have some theories, of course. For instance, Christianity is not as focused on developing the interior life as it has historically been. There are some Christians focused on this, such as Max Lucado, and there is a resurgence of interest in Henri Nouwen. But there is a lot more politics from the pulpit these days, isn't there?

This was a very interesting article. I didn't think there was as much dissent among the Christian ranks. But, it's also a little hard to tell since the poll done had whatever assumptions or strictness that it had.
