Hey, I'm not American (actually, I'm an Italo-Australian Jew -- talk about biological soup!) but I really am getting worried about all these Gallups...
If the U.S. are the "greatest nation in the world" and the most powerful after the end of the Soviets, then we're in the dung!
To think we are in the 21st century, and this utterly technologised overproductive capitalist digitized macdonaldized nation has a majority represented by imbecilic creationist Christians makes my hair stand on end while recollecting past disastrous achievements by similarly imbecilic Christians.

But I'm continuously reminded of the hilarious Proof No. 41 (from godlessgeeks.com) quoted by Richard in his THE GOD DELUSION:

"God loves you. How could you be so heartless as not to believe in Him? Therefore God exists."

Great, simply great! I feel better already.
