Those numbers are still too hgh/low.

Believe it or not, many christians lie about their Church attendence. Back in 2005 US church attendence was at 17%, which was on par with Germany.
Here is a believer source being honest about their situation back then [churchleaders.com]

Careful, you'll make me think there Is a gawd & she doesn't give a damn....oh, wait........

Sounds reasonable to me. I expect chruch attendance will keep decreasing as time passes by.

And some of those who do attend do so under duress.

I sure did plenty of times.

Still, and maybe worse, how many of those who don't go call themselves evangelical and push for asshole shit that even the bibly doesn't contain, but they espouse to believe it does?

All those in 50% attending live in the freaking American Southern badlands I bet.

This may or may not be good news. Are more people leaving blind faith for evidence-based rational thinking or are they just not thinking at all about how they can determine truth from myth?

Most people today they claim spiritual rather than Religious. For Religion is getting a bad name. I have been fooled by the Religious dress in spiritual sheep clothing. I thought it was only 3% christains attend church on a weekly regular bases.

GREAT! It's up another one percent since the last I heard.
