At the Normandy American Cemeteryon the cliff above Omaha Beach, there are rows and rows of crosses and Stars of David. Certainly, many buried there were not religious. But the overwhelming majority of Americans in the mid-20th century identified themselves culturally as Protestants, Catholics or Jews, no matter their personal beliefs.
This cultural expectation has begun fading in American life. The fastest-growing religious affiliation today is the lack of religious affiliation — the rise of the “nones,” as in “none of the above,” who now constitute nearly 20 percent of the population.

In religion, it is easy to measure what is dying; it is harder to locate the manger where something new is being born. Extremely debateable concluding sentence. Might be true for Christianity or Judaism but not for real Islam. If you want to locate what new is being born do examine deeply the Isalm as presented by the International Ahamdiyya Muslim Community.
