Why is US more religious than Europe?

Answer 1

This isn't truly the case. In present times, urban people are becoming less and less religious, which is true all over the Western world. The importance of religion has decreased dramatically in both American and European cities. Typically, conservatives tend to be more religious than liberals and focus more on religion in politics. In conservative or rural areas, religious people are more abundant than in liberal or urban areas. Religion is becoming less important, and because conservatives want to keep the same aspects, they tend to be more religious. Since the US has a larger conservative and rural area than Europe, the US is usually identified as being more religious. For example, the Southern US is much more religious than the Northern US.
