direct link to some slices of the gallup study on american muslims that aziz mentioned below. pdf of full report. from the full report:
Muslim Americans are less likely than those who affiliate with other religious groups to say they have a high school degree or less. However, 40% of Muslims say their highest level of educational achievement is a college degree or higher, which makes them the second most highly educated religious group surveyed after Jews (61% say they have at least a college degree). As a point of comparison, 29% of Americans overall say they have a college degree or higher
i suspect that “averages” are relatively uninformative for muslims. as i have noted before, american “muslims” have a higher number of very religious conservative individuals, and, those who affiliate but hold to atheist theological positions, than other american faith groups.

also, one must remember that Pew poll that you use to cite the number of “muslims” who hold to an atheist position had a very small N.
