9/11 Has Had Little Spiritual Impact
A new study by The Barna Group shows that despite an intense surge in religious activity and expression in the weeks immediately following 9/11, the faith of Americans is virtually indistinguishable today compared to pre-attack conditions.
In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, half of all Americans said their faith helped them cope with the shock and uncertainty. The change most widely reported was a significant spike in church attendance, with some churches experiencing more than double their normal crowd on the Sunday after the shocking event.
However, by the time January 2002 rolled around, churchgoing was back to pre-attack levels, and has remained consistent in the five years since.
Other religious behaviors, if they were affected at all, found equilibrium even more quickly. As of October 2001, Americans' engagement in Bible reading and prayer was no different than pre-attack levels and has been essentially consistent from that point on.
