Famed pollster's interest in religion went beyond numbers

Famed pollster's interest in religion went beyond numbers » Abilene Reporter-News: "We revere the Bible, but don't read it," warned the famous pollster George Gallup, Jr., in an address to the Evangelical Press Association. "We believe the Ten Commandments to be valid rules for living, although we can't name them. We believe in God, but this God is a totally affirming one, not a demanding one. He does not command our total allegiance. We have other gods before him." The bottom line is that most American believers simply "want the fruits of religion, but not the obligations."
