A large swath of Americans across the religious spectrum believe they are living in the last days of humanity, a recent study showed.
Nearly two in five Americans, including both Christians and the religiously unaffiliated, responded affirmatively when asked if they believe “we are living in the end times,” according to a Pew research study published last month.
The study addressed Americans’ views regarding the earth, environmentalism and climate change, but a specific portion addressed respondents on their views about the end of the world.
Black Protestants (76%) and evangelicals (63%) were the most likely to believe they are living in the end times.
Among those who adhere to a non-Christian religion, nearly three in 10 (29%) said they think the world is wrapping up. A quarter of U.S. adults overall said they believe they are living at the end of the world but do not hold such specific views about how it will take place, according to the study.
