Underrated:
Rising share of population that is non-religious or functionally non-religious. Our political culture does not incorporate this view yet but the numbers are getting quite high, especially among the young.

Overrated:
What assumption wasn't turned over by Trump's success in the primaries and general in 2016?

Most of such people were already thoroughly secular, now it's just being formalized.

The study I'm thinking of dives into specifics that make a compelling case.

Reading the above chart, 89% of Americans claiming they still believe in God is higher than I remembered. I don't know how meaningful it is, but as a headline number it would explain why this trend isn't being reported.

Being Jewish, I have a front row seat to one of the groups where this trend is most advanced.
