Decline of American 1990s secularism
From Conservapedia
In 2008, the American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) reported:
| “ | The 1990s was the decade when the “secular boom” occurred – each year 1.3 million more adult Americans joined the ranks of the Nones. Since 2001 the annual increase has halved to 660,000 a year...
Regarding belief in the divine, most Nones are neither atheists nor theists but rather agnostics and deists (59%) and perhaps best described as skeptics.[1] |

In 2012, Baylor University indicated that a significant amount of American nondenominational church members are checking "unaffiliated" or "no religion" on surveys.[2] Nondenominational Christians, who tend to be conservative and creationists, are the fastest growing segment of the religious population.[3]
