** Among religious ‘nones,’ atheists and agnostics know the most about religion ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

Atheists, agnostics and those who describe their religion as “nothing in particular” all fit into the broad category “religiously unaffiliated.” But there are differences among them: Atheists and agnostics, for instance, know more about religion than those in the “nothing in particular” group, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey ([link removed]) designed to measure the U.S. public’s knowledge about a wide range of religious topics. A new Fact Tank post ([link removed]) has five key findings from our analysis of responses given by the religiously unaffiliated, also known as religious “nones.”
