Survey results over 40 years have suggested that up to 22% of Americans lie about going to church.
It is believed that 23% of Americans regularly attend church but when asked about it in a survey up to 45% claim to do so. Philip Brenner of the Institute for Social Research has been taking a look at the results to try and explain this discrepancy.
Brenner plowed through 400 surveys and time diaries across four decades with three quarters of a million respondents in 13 nations to find that Americans exaggerate their church attendance more than anyone else.
