Well, I have read this thread with interest.

You see, here in the UK, we have a state church, yet in The USA, the declaration of independence reckons that government is secular.

And yet.....

The UK has very few practising Christians and an outsider could be forgiven for thinking The USA was a theocracy.

Is it me, or bigotry and sanctimony so ingrained now that people actually believe the invisible friend justification for their pathetic outlook on life?
