Good question. I took a look at both the Gallup and the Pew questionnaires and data. They simply ask people whether they "attend religious services" on a regular basis (weekly, monthly, etc.). They don't appear to define or limit "attendance" to physical attendance. That suggests that all forms of attendance -- physical and digital -- continue to decline, with the caveats noted for particular denominations.
Do these number include video streaming attendees as participants?
