Utah's "Emma Watson nude" raised my respect for the state immeasurably.

A host of them, eh?
But quite a few of us have wondered how the Mormons shrunk all those singers to fit in a tabernacle?

I do believe that this is where my lack of religious schooling hinders my understanding of a joke.
Although, to answer the question, between 4-16% of them.

Same here. In middle school, someone told me I was going to hell for being "unchurched", so I've got that going for me.

The family was consistent Sunday Mass attendees. Grandpop called bullthit.
In 1920's the Redemptorists (then a hell fire and ****ation order) went to my father's apartment (South Bronx) and told my grandparents that (future) Dad was going straight to hell for missing Sunday School (what became CCD in the V2 era).
