I know that doesn't apply to the US, so I shall forgive this sin.  |
In the UK they are not in the minority - The 2001 census figures show 77.2% claim to have a religion (71.4% claiming to be Christian). Also the 22.8% who have no religion are not automatically Atheists - this also included Agnostics and those who refused to answer.
Actual organised worship may be in serious decline but the majority of the population still claim to be religious.
