The Fabulous 4 %

I guess this should cheer me a bit:

CNN: Survey: Americans switching faiths, dropping out

The religious demographic benefiting the most from this religious churn is those who claim no religious affiliation. People moving into that category outnumber those moving out of it by a three-to-one margin.

The majority of the unaffiliated — 12 percent of the overall population — describe their religion as “nothing in particular,” and about half of those say faith is at least somewhat important to them. Atheists or agnostics account for 4 percent of the total population.

If this meant that people were waking up from The Bad Dream three times faster than they were being suckered into it there would be cause for great hope.

Sadly to me “unaffiliated” suggests they’re just looking for a Laughin’ Place with a better band.

I wish I had the cash and the resources to put “Letter to a Christian Nation” in every hotel room in the world.

    CNN link. Enjoy it while it lasts. Relevant info:

    The study released Monday by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life is unusual for it sheer scope, relying on interviews with more than 35,000 adults to document a diverse and dynamic U.S. religious population.
