The poll, from back in March, was about who goes to church.

Less than half of all women, and less than 1/3 of men attend weekly. More Protestants go than Catholics, and Republicans top both Democrats and Independants in church attendance.

Quote:

Forty-six percent of Protestants attend church at least weekly, peaking at 52 percent of Baptists. Just over two-thirds of Baptists are in the South, far more than elsewhere (the Midwest is next, at just 17 percent). That's one reason church attendance in the South is higher than elsewhere.

One interesting result, IMHO, was that nearly twice as many Catholic women go as do Catholic men!
