New Poll on Church-State Attitudes

A new national poll by Sacred Heart University finds that 80.8% of Americans support allowing the temporary display of religious symbols, such as mangers or menorahs, on public property during the upcoming holiday season. And 88.8% of the individuals surveyed said they were opposed to removing the phrase "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance. The poll was conducted Oct. 3-12 and has a margin of error of 3%.
