About 46 percent of American adults attend church at least once a week, not counting weddings, funerals and christenings, compared with 14 percent of adults in Great Britain, 8 percent in France, 7 percent in Sweden and 4 percent in Japan.

Another possibility for the high degree of religiosity in the United States is that the nation has a less comprehensive social welfare safety net than most other economically developed countries, leading many Americans to experience the kind of existential insecurity and economic uncertainty characteristic of highly religious populations.

I would like to find out the % iin Australia. I'd like to bet that it's probably around the 10-15% mark.

46 per cent is absolutely massive. surely that figure can't be accurate??
