The documentation of church and state

Interesting map of religious affiliation in the United States, by state and county. Only Christian, of course, as I'm sure the survey felt that the 'other' category would too too small in most places to warrant bothering with.

The Bible Belt comes across as more of a patchwork quilt in the Map Gallery of Religion in the United States, a county-by-county accounting of the nation's churchgoers. Not surprisingly, Baptists are well represented in North Texas and Mormons throughout Utah, but who'd have thought to look for so many Mennonites in the middle of Montana?

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
