American Church Attendance

What percentage of American's attend church each week? 50%? 33%?

JT at Between Two Worlds is linking to estimates that American church attendance is only around 20% even though about 40% of the public will claim they went to church on the previous weekend.

He also posts some information from Dave Olson which includes this rather frightening statistic:

If the present trends continue, the percentage of the population that attends church in 2050 will be almost half of what it is today.
