The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments today about a Louisiana law that restricts access to abortions and is among several recent state laws designed to challenge Roe v. Wade. There also are other cases on the docket that could have long-term implications for issues tied to religion.
While a 62% majority of U.S. adults overall have a favorable opinion of the court, Christians are more likely than religiously unaffiliated Americans to see it favorably (69% vs. 51%). A new analysis also looks at whether Americans see the Supreme Court as friendly, neutral or unfriendly toward religion in particular, and whether they think Roe v. Wade should be overturned.
