Religiously unaffilated means they're not subscribing to any of the larger religious believes. That can range from Wiccan over New Age to nothing at all or not giving a shit. In my country that number is at 59 percent. Fun fact, 63 percent are still members of the Catholic church, according to similar polls. In any case, it's a fifth of the American population not attending traditional services with all strings attached.
