Do you believe that all life is sacred? According to the American Worldview Inventory 2026 survey conducted by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University, less than 50% of born-again Christians believe in the sanctity of human life. While the study is shocking, The Christian Post defines “sanctity of life” as “the moral and religious belief that all human life is inherently sacred, holy, and possesses an immeasurable worth.”

With merely 44% identifying as Christians believing they will go to Heaven when they die because they’ve repented of their sins and named Jesus their Savior, one overarching question remains: why are so many others not so sure?

Based on a sample from over 2,000 adults collected in January 2026, only 27% of Americans view human life as sacred. 25% believe that thought life might not be sacred, noting: “it has great value because of the human ability to reason or to make a difference in the world,” researchers add.
