Answer 3

I think the majority religion is the lack of one. Based on my personal experience working in a company with a lot of people, in 2 different cities. Just judging by my observations, I would say that the majority of the people don't subscribe to any particular religion. They may say that they believe in God, or they were raised in a Christian home, or Catholic, but by their actions, I'd say that they don't really believe it. Look at our media, there isn't evidence of a true belief in God. They either ignore Him completely or they ridicule Him. Stats claim very high Christianity numbers, but I don't see the fruit of true Christianity in the US.

I think our country was founded by men who believed in God, they used His teachings as the foundational principles in writing our constitution.
