Evangelical Christians
As a group, evangelicals take a distinctive view on many issues. Their religious faith is an especially vital and uplifting part of their lives, and most feel obligated to share their beliefs with others. Despite their commitment to sharing, most say they strive to negotiate social interactions with tact. What's more, many evangelicals themselves say they often feel discriminated against or marginalized. In social interactions, many strive to negotiate religiously diverse settings in an appropriate manner. On certain issues, like religion in the public schools, their views are in step with the rest of the public—they favor a moment of silence over an explicitly Christian prayer. But evangelicals are less likely to countenance compromise on hot-button political issues.
