Nothing in particular

Don't know

The reason I chose this graph is because I wanted to know what most Americans believe, I
wanted to know what faith or philosophy our country was. For the looks of the graph, a
whopping 71% of Americans proclaim that they are Christian. The second biggest faith, or what
Americas would say they are, is nothing in particular. 16% of Americans dont know what
religion they follow. These people are not Atheist, that is what I thought in the beginning, they
just dont know what they are. The graph below shows what type of Christianity most Christians
follow. I wanted to know this because I was confused if they all followed Christianity, or if there
were different kinds.
