least religious countries in the world.

4. Norway
5. Japan
6. Czech Republic
7. Finland
8. France

Surprisingly, number 19th was Israel with 37% claiming to be non-believers. The United States ranked 44th. The survey concluded that "high levels of organic atheism are strongly correlated with high levels of societal health, such as low homicide rates, low poverty rates, low infant mortality rates, and low illiteracy rates, as well as high levels of educational attainment, per capita income, and gender equality. Most nations characterized by high degrees of individual and societal security have the highest rates of organic atheism, and conversely, nations characterized by low degrees of individual and societal security have the lowest rates of organic atheism. Are you surprise ?
