A large majority of young evangelicals see a conflict between their faith and their political party -- but Democrats grapple with this disconnect much more than Republicans.
So says a new survey from Sojourners, the progressive Christian group, which asked evangelicals under the age of 35 about their political views and civic engagement.

At the Religion Newswriters Conference on Friday morning, panelists said more and more Christians are hesitant to identify as "Evangelical" or "born again."

Sara Pulliam Bailey, managing editor of Odyssey Networks, said that's partly because young Christians aren't sure if they can be Evangelical and at the same time support issues like same-sex marriage.
