Christians in the US could be a minority group by 2070, study finds

All four of the Pew Research Center's scenarios showed the Christian share of the population shrinking and the number of non-believers rising

Christians in the US may become a minority group by 2070 if recent trends continue, according to data released by the Pew Research Center.

To predict how the US religious landscape will change over the next 50 years, the center posed several questions: What if Christians keep leaving religion at the same rate observed in recent years? What if the pace of religious switching continues to accelerate? What if switching were to stop, but other demographic trends - such as migration, births and deaths - were to continue at current rates?"
