Religions in the U.S.

The religious history and current religious landscape of the USA provides an abundance of topics for research into religion. These range from investigations into the puritan pilgrim fathers and the religions of native peoples of America to research into specific American groups and phenomena such as Mormons, Megachurches, Televangelists and Apocalypticism. Research into religions in the USA is also concerned with the relationship between religion and politics (in popular culture), religion and sport and the so-called American civil religion.
