I would have to say my home state of TX, you can't be more religious than TX I bet.

No Utah? I would say that it's one of the most religious states, if only through the influence of religion rather than an overwhelming number of people being religious.

Probably Texas though, of the ones you've listed.

Even some small Bible Belt towns would be on par with UT. I should've listed UT now that I think of it.

Interesting how Texas doesn't even appear on this list. 


Blame Austin or the other big cities like Dallas or Houston.

I'm surprised a place like West Virginia isn't higher on that list.


There's a lot of people from OH and PA in WV.

Dude, all three of the cities you named are covered in churches.  Churches everywhere, for every religion you can  think of.
 


1. Austin is known to be a progressive liberal secular city, churches aren't as a big deal there. Probably in the suburbs, but I doubt in the city proper.

2. Houston and Dallas are known to have large successful mega churches, like Lakewood which is run by Joel Osteen. But keep in mind, they may have a large following but the vast majority of the people who attend such mega churches live out in the suburbs and are just commuting to these mega churches Sunday morning. Many people in the city proper aren't big devout churchgoers based on my observation.

Texas, although that's for this poll only. Remember the weird 'pray for rain' event held in 2011, just what was that all about...


That Pray for Rain event could've happened anywhere.
