The problem with these kind of statistics is most aren't even really believers in the Jewish religion.  Most are actually atheists. https://www.simpletoremember.com/articles/a/jewsdontbelieve/  It would be like polling an atheist European country and saying that's what Christians believe, because that group was historically Christian.  To most jews, it's a racial not religious identity. 

Jewishness is an identity that includes more than just practicing Jews.
That means it isn't a religious identity to them.  Well it is to orthodox and hasids though.  Jewish identity is not monolithic, as it's not solely religious like it used to be.  I'm not saying I have a problem with ethnic or racial identity however, just saying what it is. 

I don’t know where to start with this study, because it contains so many egregiously deceptive conclusions based on laughably flawed data.  When one of the preferred conclusion cannot rely on their cherry-picked data, they falsify the information. 

For example, on page 18 of the study, they conclude that Muslims are more like to report unwanted sexual advances to  law enforcement (54%)  than to faith leaders (44%).  The results for reporting sexual advances to the police is missing from the data set, and the results asking whether they reported community leaders shows 44% would and 54% would not.  All they did was falsely report the results, which indicates that they would be just as likely or less likely to report unwanted sexual advances.  They eliminated the data for Jews, protestants and Catholics.  See page 12 of the data set for evidence.

Then there is the unreliable data.  They classify Christians into all kinds of sects, but do not do the same for Jews.  You are basically comparing devote Christians with Jews that have never been to synagogue in their life.   All they did was cherry-pick Jews from a more detailed survey of all religious sect Jews, as well as individuals that don’t even practice or consider themselves, but have a Jewish parent.  This results in a margin of error of 7.6% for Jews.  Then they poll a couple hundred of each group, except for Evangelicals.  We don’t even know how many evangelicals are polled in the study.

Purple heart yall too Smiley

45-10 approve (who are the 45 percent that have no opinion lol)

Presumably, the 45% who were afraid to state their true opinion.

The data is clearly cooked.  How does only 73% of Evangelicals have a favorable opinion of Evangelicals?  The most devout group of people in America don't have an opinion of their religion?  Doesn't make sense.
