text: Since Gallup found in 2016 that 73.4% of Americans claim to be "Christians" of one kind or another, that's a fair argument that we are indeed "a Christian nation".   
  
  The figures from the PEW researchers only put it at 70.2% in 2014 but that's still a pretty fair majority.  
  
  Only 18.2% are agnostic, atheist or none of the above.
  
  The rest believe some body else is turning the crank.  
  
  Worldwide:
  
  33% are 'Christians', 21% are Muslims, 14% are Hindu and only 16% are non-religious--and that includes the 'deists'.
