According to google's first results, between 13% to 7% of Americans are atheist or agnostic. Also, somewhere between 20% to 30% is simply unaffiliated - whatever that means. Atheism/agnosticism correlates with education/intelligence at the upper levels of the latter.

When you include transhumanism and the sim argument it becomes even more complex - technically I guess I'm a deist.
