Witches Now Outnumber Presbyterians In The US


Self-identified practitioners of witchcraft in the U.S. outnumber Presbyterian Christians, thanks in part to Millennials’ embrace of New Age spirituality.

The declining congregation of the U.S. Presbyterian Church has, as of 2017, fallen below the rapidly growing number of people in the U.S. who practice some form of New Age spirituality, which includes neo-Paganism, Wicca, Native American religions and Eastern mysticism, according to data from the Pew Research Center and the PCUSA.



As more members of the Millennial and younger generations disaffiliate with organized religion, and more members of older generations die out, the congregations of mainline Protestant churches die out all the more quickly despite their efforts to pander to progressive trends with the acceptance of gender fluidity, the rejection of male authority, and the embrace of homosexual marriages.
