Who Are the Unaffiliated?
The growth of the unaffiliated has taken place across a wide variety of
demographic groups. The percentage of unaffiliated respondents has ticked up
among men and women, college graduates and those without a college degree,
people earning $75,000 or more and those making less than $30,000 annually,
and residents of all major regions of the country.
When it comes to race, however, the recent change has been concentrated in
one group: whites. One-fifth of (non-Hispanic) whites now describe
themselves as religiously unaffiliated, up five percentage points since 2007
. By contrast, the share of blacks and Hispanics who are religiously
unaffiliated has not changed by a statistically significant margin in recent
years.
In terms of their religious beliefs and practices, the unaffiliated are a
diverse group, and far from uniformly secular. Just 5% say they attend
worship services on a weekly basis. But one-third of the unaffiliated say
religion is at least somewhat important in their lives. Two-thirds believe
in God (though less than half say they are absolutely certain of God’s
existence). And although a substantial minority of the unaffiliated consider
themselves neither religious nor spiritual (42%), the majority describe
themselves either as a religious person (18%) or as spiritual but not
religious (37%). | N**B

· 新教徒比例48%，首次低于50%
· 原因：1、非宗派基督教会不被算在新教内；2、不信宗教的人在过去五年中从15%增
加到20%。
· 相信上帝的人中，极少数每日祷告，极少数认为自己是属灵的（spiritual）。
· 多数不信教者不寻求新的信仰
· 不信教者中压倒多数地支持民主党（在过去五年中民主党注册选民由17%上升至24%）
；最高法院大法官中已无新教徒；共和党首次出现非新教徒候选人（摩门教和天主教）
· 不信教者支持堕胎和同性婚姻合法化的比例高于全国平均
