Decline in the 'None' Affiliation Group
Recent analysis by Professor Ryan Berg suggests that the growth of those identifying as having no religious affiliation, also known as 'nones', may have stabilized or decreased. Data from Pew indicates that the percentage of Americans identifying as 'nones' in 2023 has returned to the 2020 levels, standing at 28%. Berg attributes the previous rise in 'nones' to marginally religious individuals shifting to no affiliation, with the remaining group being predominantly deeply committed believers.
