An interesting look at part of the phenomena from pew back in 2018, as christianity is being pressured by secularization on the one side, it's also struggling with the ingress of competing religious and spiritual beliefs on the other. This divergence of views can be seen as part of the underlying dissolution (or perceptions of dissolution) of some christian majority or christian authority in giovernment. It's why the nuts went dominionist even though they formed as a social justice subsect. As I've bored people over before - it's how folks who began their adult and spiritual lives doing foreign aid work in central america, to white supremacists chiefly concerned with preventing any aid to people in central america or americans in the us who may have come from central america - further, to cut off the pipe entirely.

-So, I think that while it might seem on the surface like christianity losing it's grip here is a good thing - remember that we're dealing with a trapped animal that was already trying to deal with severe existential distress.
