Religious service attendance dropping

More than three-quarters of Americans say religion’s role in public life is shrinking, per a recent Pew Research Center survey β€” the highest level since the group first started tracking such sentiment in 2001.

A separate Gallup survey published this week found that Latter-day Saints are the only religious group wherein a majority say they attend services weekly, at 54%.

30% of Protestants say they attend services weekly, compared to 28% of Muslims, 23% of Catholics and 16% of Jews.
