Pew: The Most Religious State In America Is...Mississippi

The Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion & Public Life "used polling data to rank religiosity "on four measures: the importance of religion in people's lives, frequency of attendance at worship services, frequency of prayer and absolute certainty of belief in God. Mississippi stands out on all four, and several other Southern states also rank very high on the measures."
