Answer 2

If Atheism is a religion then everyone!

The definition of "belonging" is hard to quantify and varies from religion to religion.

In the Catholic Church, for example, being baptized makes you "Catholic" forever, unless you are excommunicated or formally convert. Also, Jews are all those born to Jewish mothers (or in the Reform movement fathers) so therefore atheist, non-religious Jews are still "Jews."

In polls where people are asked about their religious affiliation, about 80-85% of Americans claim to have one (about 15% state they are atheist or agnostic, and usually about 5% refuse to answer the question).

The 80% of those who state a religious affiliation contains about 76% who are Christians (of which about one third is Catholic and two thirds are Protestant, and this group also includes 3.3% of the population who are Christian but are not Catholic or Protestant per se, such as Mormons, Jehovahs Witnesses, Messianic Jews and Unitarians) and 4% are Muslim (0.6%), Jewish (1.7%) or another religion such as Hindu, Sikh or Buddhist.
