I ran across this interesting demographic research of the distribution of denominations. This research was produced by the Glenmary Research Center (a Catholic group). The fine print indicates that the County designations are based on the total number of adherents reported by each church body divided by the county population in 2000. Majority counties are areas in which the leading church body claims 50 percent or more of the population. I thought this was very interesting. (if you double click a couple times on the map, it will enlarge)

What would be some of the implications of this research in your opinion?
