A Map of Faith, 2000
This map is apparently of data from 2000, I wonder about 2007.I found the map above and individual group maps may be found at the website of American Ethnic Geography. Still not sure as to why there is no newer information posted since this copyright of 2002. They do note that "The U.S. Census Bureau, due to issues related to the separation of church and state, does not ask questions related to faith or religion on the decennial census. Accordingly, there are few sources of comprehensive data on church membership and religious affiliation for the United States. Perhaps the leading organization to address this gap is the Glenmary Research Center, which publishes Religious Congregations and Membership in the United States, 2000."

Check out PZ Myers take on this map. Lots of comments there. Over 400 at last count. The comments are very enlightening, as is Prof. Myers post.
Yeah, I read a little. He's got an opinion, I say let him have it.
A Map of Stupidity
We all know what religion does to people. Religion didn't create vaccines, send people to space, create artificial limbs and so on.
The more religious a state, the higher the crime rate, and the higher the ignorance.
PZ Myers is a far better writer than you, Tim.
Unlike you, he is a scientist, and is well qualified to write about science.
You stick to your theology bullshit instead.
Oh look, as you get further from the ocean, people get stupider.
hmmm... the comments usually left here are so intelligent? lol
More intelligent than yours.
Proved my point. :)
That comment gives nothing to the topic. It was just left because you have the inability to allow even one of posts to be without a comment from you.
Free speech rules. If you can't stand it, don't blog.
