I haven't found any good source of religious affiliation data, but if instead we go by what percentage of the population say that religion is important in their life, a lot of Western nations had a higher percentage than the US according to a 2009 Gallup poll [1].

Not many. You’ve got Italy, the seat of the Catholic Church, and Portugal. The rest that are higher are not in the same class in terms of development or wealth, like Greece and Moldova.
