Most Religious Groups in USA Have Lost Ground, Survey Finds

"When it comes to religion, the USA is now land of the freelancers. The percentage of people who call themselves in some way Christian has dropped more than 11% in a generation.

And everywhere, more people are exploring spiritual frontiers — or falling off the faith map completely."

The full report of the the 2008 American Religious Identification Survey is located here.
