‘A Christian body that waffles on truth has no credibility and cannot bless the nation as it is called to do'

A new survey reveals that most Americans reject the idea of an absolute moral truth as the prominent Christian researcher behind the report warns that the absence of this concept has wide-ranging implications for societal harmony.

The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University released the latest installment of its 2025 American Worldview Inventory on Thursday. The data in the report is based on responses collected from 2,100 adults in January. The research examined Americans’ views about whether or not there is an absolute moral truth.

When asked whether they agreed that “a mature human accepts different truth views to be just as valid as their own views,” 67% of respondents answered in the affirmative. Majorities of non-Christians (69%), those without any particular faith (68%), self-identified Christians (67%) and theologically identified born-again Christians (56%) agreed with this statement. Thirty-one percent of integrated disciples agreed with this view, making them the only group where less than half rejected the idea of an absolute moral truth.
