Christianity as practiced here is fairly fragmented and unorganized outside a vague sense that "everyone else is like me and believes in God, kinda" Despite what the pollsters come up with, most people aren't terribly religious, there's quite a bit of legal code restricting official government bias in favor of one religion over another (as opposed to say, oh, Israel) &c &c. Certainly give me the credit of not being so ignorant to think that the US isn't informed, influenced, and driven by Christianity, Christian ethics & morals, and Christians - trust me, not being Christian, I have to deal with it everyday - I would say that the US is decidedly NON-religious compared to the countries currently making the headlines for their internal and domestic policies. -j- -- "O! for a Muse of fire, that would ascend, The brightest heaven of invention!"
