Rising Ranks Of The "No Religion-ists"



From The Washington Post:
The percentage of Americans who call themselves Christians has dropped dramatically over the past two decades, and those who do are increasingly identifying themselves without traditional denomination labels, according to a major study of U.S. religion being released today.
Some detail:
The only group that grew in every U.S. state since the 2001 survey was people saying they had "no" religion; the survey says this group is now 15 percent of the population.
15% of 300 million is 45 million. 45 Million Americans claiming "no religion."

I wonder how the social conservatives will be spinning this.
