 A new Gallup poll has found that 89 percent of Americans say they believe in God, and this is after the belief in God having declined over the last few decades.

When Gallup asked, "Do you believe in God," 89 percent of U.S. adults said, "yes," and 10 percent said, "no." One percent said they had no opinion, the poll says.

In the surveys conducted May 4-8 and June 14-23, Gallup then slightly changed the question, asking, "Do you believe in God or a universal spirit?" Again, 89 percent said they believe, and 9 percent said they do not. And 2 percent said they had no opinion.

Given more options than "yes or no," and asked to choose among "believe in, not sure about and don't believe in," 79 percent of respondents said they believe in God, 11 percent said they don't believe and 10 percent said they are not sure, the poll says.
