U.S. STANDS ALONE IN ITS EMBRACE OF RELIGION
http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?ReportID=167
"Religion is much more important to Americans than to people living in other wealthy nations. Six-in-ten (59%) people in the U.S. say religion plays a very important role in their lives. This is roughly twice the percentage of self-avowed religious people in Canada (30%), and an even higher proportion when compared with Japan and Western Europe. Americans’ views are closer to people in developing nations than to the publics of developed nations. "
not that I'd ever correlate mainstream religion with the US's problems or anything...
