Post-RLS-dataset

This dataset serves as a dynamic follow-up and extension to the foundational Religious Landscape Study (RLS). While the RLS provides a comprehensive, cross-sectional snapshot of religious affiliation, beliefs, and practices, this Post-RLS dataset is designed to track the evolution of those trends. It captures longitudinal data, measures the impact of recent socio-political events on religiosity, and explores emerging themes like digital religion, spiritual innovation, and the "nones" phenomenon in greater depth. It is an essential tool for understanding not just where American religion is, but where it is going.
