These two surveys came to similar conclusions where they overlapped on this figure:
That about 25% of the U.S population over 18 yrs. old identified themselves as Catholic and about 50%+ as Protestant of the 76% identified as Christian.
See:
religions.pewforum.org/
and
www.gc.cuny.edu/faculty/research_briefs/.../key_findings.htm

There is more of course for anyone interested.

Thank you. And yet somehow we’ll still hear those numbers are wrong. The same numbers found in every survey of Christian denominations.

I am more than willing to discuss factual material. I will not accept material which "overlaps" but is based upon no data and no methodology. If I came to my Vice President with figures based upon the Washington Times reference to the Pew reference to an unknown group's claims, I'd be fired on the spot. Let's have a real study with data that can be independently analyzed and in which the methodology can be evaluated for bias. Otherwise we wind up with miracle informercials and cold fusion posing as truth.
