Résumé:The number of people with no religious affiliation (religious "nones") is growing in the west. However, little is known about the religiosity - or non-religiosity - of these people. Using representative survey data, this report examines the levels of religious belief and practice among Australian religious nones and compares this with those who identify with a religion. It is found that there is a deep congruence with no religious affiliation and other ways of being considered non-religious.
