Table 69. Self-Described Religious Identification of Adult Population:
1990 and 2001
[In thousands (175,440 represents 175,440,000). The American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) 2001 was based on a
random digit-dialed telephone survey of 50,281 American residential households in the continental U.S.A. (48 states).
Respondents were asked to describe themselves in terms of religion with an open-ended question. Interviewers did not prompt or
offer a suggested list of potential answers. Moreover, the self-description of respondents was not based on whether established
religious bodies, institutions, churches, mosques or synagogues considered them to be members. Quite the contrary, the survey
sought to determine whether the respondents themselves regarded themselves as adherents of a religious community. Subjective
rather than objective standards of religious identification were tapped by the surveys]

surveys conducted in the continental United States (48 states). 2 Because of the subjective nature of replies to open-ended
question, these categories are the most unstable as they do not refer to clearly identifiable denominations as much as underlying
feelings about religion. Thus they may be the most subject to fluctuation over time.

Table 71. Christian Church Adherents, 2000, and Jewish Population,
2003—States
[133,377 represents 133,377,000. Christian church adherents were defined as ‘‘all members, including full members, their children
and the estimated number of other regular participants who are not considered as communicants, confirmed or full members.’’ The
Jewish population includes Jews who define themselves as Jewish by religion as well as those who define themselves as Jewish
in cultural terms. Data on Jewish population are based primarily on a compilation of individual estimates made by local Jewish
federations. Additionally, most large communities have completed Jewish demographic surveys from which the Jewish population
can be determined]
