=== University of Minnesota indicates in 2016 that American dislike of atheists grew ===
A press release of a 2016 study the University of Minnesota conducted reported:
{{Cquote|Survey data collected in 2014 shows that, compared to data collected in 2003, Americans have sharpened their negative views of atheists...
The findings of this most recent survey support the argument that atheists are persistent cultural outsiders in the United States because they are perceived to have rejected cultural values and practices understood as essential to private morality, civic virtue, and national identity. Moreover, any refusal to embrace a religious identity of any type is troubling for a large portion of Americans.<ref>[http://cla.umn.edu/news-events/news/atheists-remain-most-disliked-religious-minority-us Atheists Remain Most Disliked Religious Minority in the US]</ref>}}
