Description
To quote an R.E.M., one could say Americans are losing their religion.
Over the course of a week last summer, the Pew Research Center conducted a study of Americans' religious affiliations.
The report reveals more than one in four Americans identifies as "non-religious," "atheist," or "agnostic."
They now identify as religious "nones," meaning they were raised in Christian households, but now have no religious affiliation.
This also comes at a time when church congregations have dwindled and parishes are closing.
The church was once a strong part of communities across the U.S. and a powerful voting block.
Over the next hour we'll look at the rise of Americans identifying as religious "nones" and whether it's habit forming.
