Younger Evangelicals less likely to believe that Jews are 'God's chosen people': poll

[Michie]

Evangelical Christians under the age of 35 are less likely than their elders to believe that Jews are God's "chosen people" and are more likely to support "Replacement Theology," according to a recently released survey.

Infinity Concepts and Grey Matter recently released a report titled "Crossroads of Belief: Evangelicals and the Jewish People" that examined how Evangelicals view the Jewish people. The report drew on an online study conducted earlier this year, which gathered data from a sample of 1,008 Evangelical Protestants. No margin of error was stated.

While 49% of overall respondents said that they believe Jews are God's chosen people, only 29% of respondents below the age of 35 agreed.

By contrast, 50% of respondents aged 35-44 said the Jews were God's chosen people, as well as 51% of those aged 45-54, 55% of those aged 55-64 and 56% of those aged 65 and above.

"Replacement theology" is a perjorative term meant to caricature and flatten traditional Christian views of Jews and Judaism, originally it was used by certain postwar pro-Zionist or liberal Mainline Protestants and Catholics, but now its used by Evangelicals that support Israel due to dispensationalist theology.

They also don't know the Word of God at all, unless their parents are believers and made efforts to teach them. We live in a very different society than the one in which we and previous generations grew up. So how would they know?
