Comments:
The Council for the National Interest has just conducted a Zogby International poll that reveals that nearly a third (31 percent) of likely American voters believe in Christian Zionism, as defined as "a belief that Israel must have all of the promised land, including Jerusalem, to facilitate the second coming of the messiah." More than half (53 percent) of American voters do not believe in Christian Zionism, while sixteen percent are not sure.
Those living in the east (66 percent) are the most likely to say they do not believe in Christian Zionism, while those living in south (35 percent) and in the central Great Lakes region (36 percent) are the most likely to believe. Protestants (40 percent) are significantly more likely to believe than are Catholics (19 percent). African Americans (40 percent) are more likely to believe in this than either Hispanics (33 percent) or whites (29 percent). Republicans (37 percent) are more likely to believe in Christian Zionism than are Democrats or independents (28 percent each).
