Here is the recent Gallup poll.

The most religious states:

  1.  Mississippi
  2.  Alabama
  3.  Utah
  4.  South Dakota
  5.  South Carolina

The least religious states:

  1. Vermont
  2. Maine
  3. Massachusetts
  4. Rhode Island
  5. Nevada

Notes:

  • What happened to New England?  In the period that I study that region was pretty religious.  🙂
  • Can anyone explain why South Dakota is so religious?
  • Is there a correlation between legalized gambling and Nevada’s irreligiosity?
  • There is a definite correlation between religious states and GOP hotbeds.

One thought on “Most Religious States in America”

  1. I’ve always assumed GOP hotbeds were “more Christian” because I rarely see a hyper-liberal Christian. It seems customary to me that I see hyper-conservative Christians. I’m not sure why that is, but I’ve noticed it too.
