What's the problem? If 53% are Protestant and 28% are Catholic, then
81% of Americans are some kind of Christian. That leaves plenty of
room for the 59% to take Revelations literally. That would mean that
22% are non-literalistic Christians. These numbers basically agree
with my experience and understanding of the situation.

You guys are driving me nuts with these stats. Forget official polls.
Go to a good-sized mall in any American city, and stop 100 people at
random. Ask them if they believe that Jesus Christ was the son of
God, put on earth by God to be crucified for their sins, so that they
may have a clean slate, live a good Christian life, then be rewarded
with eternal bliss in heaven. I bet that AT LEAST 59 of them will
say yes. If they can believe this, why not all of Revelations?
I'm with David. What's the problem?
Best,
Mark Steven Heyman
