Religious Congregations & Membership in the United States: 2000, published by the Glenmary Research Center, contains the most complete data available on U.S. religious affiliation. Released in 2002, it is the latest in a series of every-10-year studies conducted at the same time as the U.S. census. For the first time, data on Muslims and other religious bodies beyond the Judeo-Christian tradition was included, although on a limited basis, in this study.
As the Association of Statisticians of American Religious Bodies (ASARB) and the Glenmary Research Center prepare to collect and compile the data for the 2010 study, copies of the 2000 study are being made available for a limited time to newspapers, libraries, universities and colleges for $15 with free postage and handling.
The 584-page book includes 24 color maps. It is packaged with a fold-out major religious families wall map (25" x 38") and a CD-ROM with database files from 1952, 1971, 1980, 1990, and 2000 studies in Excel, SPSS and comma-delimited text.
