[...] Although I was led there via Marko’s post which referenced the map above, it’s a pretty intereting site in itself. If you have an interest in anything from history and politics to the Tombs of the Stars or the Kaballah Tree of Life, StrangeMaps is a great place to waste a little bit of time. [...]

It’s my understanding that “Christian” is ‘Christian Church/Church of Christ’ affiliation. When I look at those particular counties, I see the correlation. The Indiana/Illinois are is where the Restoration Movement (Christian Church) really has a solid base of churches.

Some of the comments at the original posting were telling. What I wanted to see was the #2 denomination (funny when you think about it like a middle schooler).

There may also be a discrepancy in counties where the label is “Christian”. Depending on the source material, that could include anyone who responded with a non-specific denomination (church hoppers, church shoppers, non-church affiliated believers)

Very interesting.

As far as my county goes, I found it inaccurate. It says that Baptist is the dominant denomination, but I can’t think of a Baptist church anywhere in our county that has any influence at all. I did find the map very interesting though. I think an interesting add-on would be an overlay of how each county votes as well.
