28% of Americans are now religiously unaffiliated. A new study from Pew Research looks at how atheists, agnostics and those whose religion is "nothing in particular" view God, religion and morality.

Not a new article, but I find it reassuring sometimes knowing how many people identity as not having a religion.

I was clicking around and didn't see how it compares to religious groups. Was anyone able to find a comparison/breakdown?

Why, yes, it does. Thank you very much. It adds the context I was looking for.
