Summary
The growth of the so-called Nones - people unaffiliated with religious institutions - has captivated religious and political leaders concerned with the implications of a 'decline of religion' in the United States. But most Nones are not non-believers, most were raised in religious households, and many have robust spiritual lives that intertwine with the lives of the religiously affiliated. 'Choosing Our Religion' explores the spiritual lives of Nones based on more than 100 intensive interviews across the United States and a survey of more than 1000 religiously affiliated and unaffiliated Americans. -- Provided by publisher.
