Losing Our Religion?

Our latest poll with NPR/PBS NewsHour is out and behind the horserace numbers is some really interesting -- and some would say worrying -- data about how Americans are thinking about our democracy. We're asking what the results are telling us about which candidate is more likely to preserve democracy and about American's fear of fascism and extremism.Next, are we becoming an R.E.M. song and losing our religion? There's a growing population in America that is identifying less with religion, particularly organized religion. Does this mean we're becoming less religious, as well? And, what does it mean for pollsters who use the religion of respondents to help better analyze opinion data?And, after all that weighty stuff, our fun fact is all about a treat that, in excess, is surely weighty, as well: Donuts!
