http://www.irishcentral.com/news/col/NOdowd/Holy-mess-11-million-Irish-Americans-leave-Catholic-Church--61442662.htmlA new survey shows 34 million Americans, or 15 percent of the population, say they have no religion.
Even more significant is that one-third of those, about 11 million people, are Irish Americans.
The survey by professors at Trinity College in Hartford, CT, does not explain why Irish Catholics are by far the highest number of people who are losing their religion every year in America.
This sounds very troubling. We need faith now more than ever.
