There is no "most favored religion" in the United States because the Constitution is so worded that no such religion can be established. See the First Amendment to the US Constitution. The most popular religion in the US is Christianity. It has been estimated that over 75% of Americans are Christian. This includes fundamentalists, Prodestants, and Catholics.

In broad terms, the most common religion is Christianity (claimed by the majority of the population - 70.6% as of 2014).

According to a 2012 review by the National Council of Churches, the five largest Christian denominations were:

  • The Roman Catholic church with 68,202,492 US members
  • The Southern Baptist Convention with 16,136,044 US members
  • The United Methodist Church with 7,679,850 US members
  • The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with 6,157,238 US members
  • The Church of God in Christ with 5,499,875 US members
Obviously from among these groups, the Catholic church is the most common.
