Scientology is up according to what? Their own numbers are pretty suspect.

And when I say religiosity I mean the portion of the population that has no or limited religious affiliation is up as a whole not just one particular denomination or religion, it's down as a whole across all religions.

Me.

100 years ago: 0 scientologists now: conservatively, at least 100 scientologists

As for the portion of the population that has no or limited religious affiliation, I'm not sure that mean it will keep going down, versus comes into some kind of equilibrium.
