Hello grngrl-ga, Your question appealed to me because I recall seeing a breakdown recently. Below are some sites (and descriptions) that will provide the information you want. At the bottom I'll include the Google search keywords and strategy I used to find these sites. Adherents.com Largest Religious Groups in America <http://www.adherents.com/rel_USA.html> --lots of stats here. They do include percentage breakdown by church City University of New York American Religious Identification Survey <http://www.gc.cuny.edu/studies/key_findings.htm> -scroll down below key findings. You will find a table (exhibit 1) with an excellent breakdown. INcludes percentages. The NES Guide to public opinion and electoral behavior Religion of Respondent <http://www.umich.edu/~nes/nesguide/toptable/tab1b_1c.htm> Religious Tolerance.org Religious Identification in the U.S. <http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_prac2.htm> Infoplease.com Largets 25 U.S. Churches Numbers of members per church <http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001481.html> Google Search Keywords: -american religious preference percentage -"u.s. churches" statistics -"american religion statistics" -u.s. demographics "religion statistics" (limited by domain to edu sites) I hope this information satisifies your info needs. Please submit a clarification request if you are uncertain about anything I've provided here. Thanks, rapidreference-ga |
