Religious "Nones" are now the largest Cohort in America

 Pew Research reported today that when Americans were about their religious affiliation the largest group of people said, "none." Compared to 23% who are Catholics and 24% Evangelistic Protestants.

A dramatic increase from 2007 when 16% of America's were nones.does  46% of the nones said they do not like religious organizations.

Most “nones” reject the idea that science can explain everything. But they express more positive views of science than religiously affiliated Americans do.
