Yep, both of these facts are well kept secrets. You can check out Fenggang Yang’s lecture, “What do Asian Americans really believe?” for more details. It is posted on Jan. 25th, 2008 on the SANAC’s blog. A closer look will show that Filipinos and Koreans are responsible for the high affiliation with Christianity. Among Chinese Americans, Christian affiliation is smaller – but not as small as one might think.

Thanks for commenting! Hope to see you at our Chinese consultation on April 26th, 2008!
