From the table it is actually already very visible that the United States of America is one of the countries that have a diversity of religions. Although adherents of religion in the United States are the majority of Christians, but again the United States does not question the existence of other religions in the country. It also seems very clears, the number of non-Christians is very much different from Christians.

Religious diversity in the United States of course also has to do with the spread of religion in the world. The factor of the existence of other religions in the United States and is certainly accepted because the United States was born from various ethnic groups who immigrated to the United States. So, like it or not, like it or not the United States must accept the presence of these religions.

But what's interesting in the United States, the development of Islam in the United States is increasingly growing well and well. The phobia of Islam actually happened in the United States in the case of the September 11, 2001 attacks. After the attacks of 9/11/2001, Islam was considered a terrorist religion, so the fear of Islam is quite high.

After quite a long period of time, Islam is growing very well in the United States. Evidenced by the existence of the first boarding school in the United States named Pondok Pesantren Nusantara Madani USA, which was built by Imam Shamsi Ali, a Muslim scholar from Indonesia who now lives in New York.

The form of religious diversity in the United States is not a threat to the United States itself. It is even this diversity that arises tolerance, mutual help and mutual respect in the United States. It can be seen from a variety of Joint activities from various different religious bases. 

So that the United States often brings up important histories in the process of the United States journey. Because the United States upholds religious freedom and maintains values of tolerance. So that the diversity of religions in the United States is one of the strengths in the United States.
