Religious Studies

Data and statistics on religion are notoriously difficult (and in some cases controversial) to gather.  Here are some scholarly organizations that do some work in this area:

• Pew Research Center on Religion & Public Life, Religious Landscape Study
   
• "Religious Affiliation in Texas", Texas Almanac, Texas State Historical Association
  based on ARDA (Association of Religion Data Archives): U.S. Congregational Membership: Reports
   
• Handbook of Texas Online, John W. Storey, "Religion,"  http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/izrdf
