Most! Or would you prefer “many”? (Aside: Wish I’d said “mild form” to take more of the sting out of it. Not trying to castigate!)
I can't say I've kept a tally, but my subjective sense is that it's a minority. Admittedly, that may be because occasions when beliefs are shared sincerely by friends really stand out in my memory.
