Well, what do you consider "crazy"? 90% of Americans believe in God...is
that crazy? A large majority of Americans belong to some type of organized
religion....are they crazy?

Just because faith issues are important to a large number of
Americans.....does not make them crazy. I know quite a few religious people
here in the midwest who will be voting for Obama. They are outnumber by the
religious people I know voting for McCain, but that does not make them
necessarily "crazy".

We really need to keep our perspective. Faith does NOT equal crazy.
