Recently I've heard people make a couple of claims, that evidence seems to show to be false.
1. People broad brush all Republican candidates with the supposed "ism's" of Trump and therefore the GOP is becoming irrelevant.
Other than the obvious, that Trump won, the fact is that the democrat party lost ground virtually everywhere. Congress, state legislatures, governorships, etc. If the GOP is becoming irrelevant, this seems a strange way of showing it.
2. Progressive theology is causing liberal churches to grow faster than more conservative churches. Except that a new scientific study contradicts that notion. The fact is that the folks the liberals think are the next generation of progressive christians are probably more likely to end up as "nones" than anything else.
