Americans worry about the level of violence and discrimination against religion and religious rights in the "woke" era.

Both sides of the political debate agree that there's a schism of sorts in America, a cultural battle that transcends ordinary politicking and goes to heart of how we see ourselves and our fellow Americans. And one of the elements of that cultural battle, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll suggests, is religion.

The monthly I&I/TIPP sounding of public opinion asked: "Do you agree or disagree with the statement "religion is under attack in the U.S.?"

Among those responding, 52% said they agree, while 40% said they disagree. About 9% said they weren't sure (numbers don't add to 100% due to rounding).
