"One in five Americans do not identify as religious, according to a new poll, representing a significant spike over the last five years.
The share of adults who do not claim a religious affiliation has jumped from 15.3 percent in 2007 to 19.6 percent in 2012, according to a study released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center.
The study found large increases in the number of Americans who label themselves “atheist,” “agnostic” and “nothing in particular.” The percentage that identifies as Christian has fallen by 5 percent since 2007 while the fraction that claims other faiths rose by 2 percent.
