6. my bad
your right I guess it's not funny if its a reality you guys are facing.

I dont understand if they want religion in schools so bad, why don't they just have a religion class? In Ontario we have a catholic school system which offers religion classes.

2. Why is this a uniquely American disease?
Is it the leaded paint we chewed on as kids? Is it the asbestos in the brake linings we breath? Gasoline fumes? Arsenic in our water? I just don't get it. Why us?

4. Good question!
I personnally think it's the lack of nationwide popular movement. Religion is the only coast-to-coast unifying force here, just as it is in many de-colonized nations (ME etc...)

5. Also, like the old joke says...
"The British Empire sent its criminals to Australia and its religious fanatics to America.

Why, oh, why did they give Australia first choice?"
