Data from Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life

Researchers from the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life have made a splash in the media for their religious knowledge survey. They found that overall Americans were only able to answer about half of their questions. And the groups that did the best: atheists, agnostics, Jews, and Mormons.
