A new study by Barna shows that a large number of young people in America have a very negative view of the Bible. According to the study "Millennials and the Bible," 27% percent of "Millennials" (ages 18-29) agreed with the statement that the Bible "is a dangerous book of religious dogma used for centuries to oppress people," and 38% label the Bible "mythology."

Only nine percent said they are curious about what's in the Bible when they see someone reading it
