When times are tough and people are angry, even God has a tough time pulling down high approval ratings.
A new survey by Public Policy Polling found that only 52% of American voters approve of God’s performance. Nine percent disapprove, and 40% said they were undecided.
God fared much better among self-described “very conservative” voters, with only 4% disapproving. Among “very liberal” respondents, nearly 20% gave the almighty a thumbs down.
God received his highest marks for creating the universe (71%). However, only 50% said God has done a good job handling natural disasters.
