Phil Cooke in CHURCHLEADERS:
Pastors, we must do a better job preaching and teaching. In 2016, Lifeway Research revealed a study which indicated that the ignorance of American Christians has grown to the point that the majority could actually be considered heretics. As the study put it:
Although Americans still overwhelmingly identify as “Christian,” startling percentages of the nation embrace ancient errors condemned by all major Christian traditions.

Americans talking about theology sound about as competent as country singers rapping.
