The Religious Renaissance of Gen-Z Males
Are young men becoming “more religious” than young women? That’s what The New York Times reports as an “emerging trend” and “a first among Christians.” Correspondent Ruth Graham noted this dramatic shift in demographics, despite the historical tendency of women to be more religiously active.
Her article focused on Generation Z, or “Zoomers” — people born between 1997 and 2012 — and quoted a number of pundits who attest to the flip, from Southern Baptist pastors in Texas to researchers at Eastern Illinois and Baylor Universities.
In this age group, men are surpassing women in both church attendance and attachment to Christian beliefs. “Within Gen Z, almost 40 percent of women now describe themselves as religiously unaffiliated, compared with 34 percent of men,” according to the survey Graham cited from the American Enterprise Institute (AEI).
