IINYS Bulletin board Posted by: Rsgilbert

American Religious Landscape survey Posted by: Robb
Date Posted: March 5, 2008, 4:15pm
The Pew Foundation has published the first part of a massive survey of the religious landscape of the United States. For an interactive map that gives a quick breakdown of results, go to http://www.usatoday.com:80/news/graphics/pew-religion-08/flash.htm. For the report itself, see http://pewforum.org/docs/?DocID=279. As the religious landscape changes, I think it's important to remind law and policy makers that our government was created to promote the common good, not religious doctrine.
