An ARIS study was conducted to find how people self-identified their religious beliefs. Amongst the estimated results for 2004 were the following: Atheist: 1,272,986 (0.4%) Agnostic: 1,398,592 (0.5%) Non-religious/Secular: 38,865,604 (13.2%) Despite the low number of people who readily admit to being atheist, almost all of the people who prefer to call themselves agnostic or non-religious are also likely to fit the definition.
