Isn't the number of declared atheists already at 13 percent with non religious making up an even larger proportion? Way to go for muslims, who, far as I know, are at three percent in the USA.
Not quite: http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/201...opulation/
Pew Research Center estimates that there were about 3.3 million Muslims of all ages living in the United States in 2015. This means that Muslims made up about 1% of the total U.S. population (about 322 million people in 2015), and we estimate that that share will double by 2050.
Atheists make up 3.1% - The 2015 Pew Religious Landscape survey reported that as of 2014 , 22.8% of the American population is religiously unaffiliated, atheists made up 3.1% and agnostics made up 4% of the US population.
