Poll Shows Americans 18-29 are Becoming More Pro-Life

American society is experiencing a quiet but significant return to traditional values, defying decades of cultural decline narratives. Fresh data from the University of Virginia reveals divorce rates have fallen a remarkable 40% since the early 1980s, with the steepest drops occurring in the last fifteen years. Simultaneously, more children are growing up in two-parent households, reversing a troubling trend that had particularly devastated certain communities.

This shift toward family stability appears to be bringing additional benefits. Marriage is encouraging healthier expressions of masculinity, with married men working harder, drinking less, and channeling traditionally masculine traits like protection and provision in ways that benefit their families and communities.

This represents a significant change from previous administrations' approaches to religious expression in government settings.

Perhaps most surprising are shifting attitudes on abortion, particularly among young adults. A Gallup poll shows that in just two years, the percentage of 18-29 year olds identifying as pro-life increased by eight points, while those supporting abortion in all circumstances dropped fourteen points. While this doesn't indicate complete opposition to abortion, it suggests Gen Z may not follow predicted patterns of increasing abortion support.

When examining moral attitudes more broadly, Americans remain divided on issues like transgenderism, abortion, and same-sex relationships, often along partisan lines. Yet there are surprising points of unity: 89% of Americans view adultery as morally wrong, with cloning and suicide also widely rejected across political divides.

These trends suggest America may be reaching a cultural inflection point where traditional values are experiencing renewed appre
