Pew Research Report on Muslims in America

The Pew Research Center, one of the most well-respected polling groups in the US, did a study in 2007 on American Muslims. The title of their report: "Muslim Americans: Middle Class and Mostly Mainstream."
Amid all the rhetoric about Islam these days, the report is a factual look at the issue. The summary is very easy reading and I definitely recommend that you look it over. You can find the Pew report here. In light of our discussion on Sunday, it will be useful to have some solid information.
