Pat,
By age
http://www.pewforum.org/religious-landscape-study/age-distribution/
Now look at the married vs others.

This backs up my assertion that getting married is one of the main reasons people find religion. This is due to a spouse typically.
Also by age young people are alwags non religious as a whole but they mature in faith .... Whether it be getting their by spouse or other factors.
I can't past the pics only the links atm.
Your stance that young people are moving away from faith is flawed because traditionally young people have been less with their faith than older generations. You would need to run this poll i. About 30 years and see whether your assertions are valid. Until then it's all up in the air because it's hard to believe that Millennials will all of a sudden do what no other generation has done.
Now where I get 50% is where we take 9.2 raised in Unaffiliated .... Then losing 4.3 ... I stopped there to just look at the those who were raised unaffiliated..... They are also losing people, which is consistent with raised religious . Which could be just kids rebelling against what they were raised.
