But only only 10% of the population of the USA is falls in this group. The largest number of atheists is in a lot of the European countries like England, France, Germany, etc...
Thats because at least 50% of "Christians" just say they are Christian because thier parents made them think they were supposed to be Christian. In other words, alot of people were raised to be Christian but in actuality know nothing about it.
