The numbers of Evangelical Christians attending megachurches has increased as attendance in "mainstream" churches has declined. More Americans decline to state they have any particular faith. Fewer attend any religious services. Many refuse to be bound by religious "rules".
Among other findings:
" The percentage of Catholics in the United States has remained steady at about one in four since 1990, while the percentage of other Christians has plummeted from 60 percent to 50 percent.
• The percentage of Muslims has doubled since 1990, but remains statistically very small, only 0.3 percent in the original survey and 0.6 percent today.
• Mormons have remained steady as a percentage of the population, even as the number of people in the United States has grown. They make up 1.4 percent of the population.
• The number of Jews in the United States is falling if the category includes only those who define themselves as Jews religiously, but has remained the same if the category includes people who consider themselves ethnically Jewish."
