Ya know, I don't recall anything in The Bible that suggested God sat on a cloud. Just saying.

You realize that religion was the reason the Pilgrims came here, right?
Then later they drafted the Declaration of Independence
Quote:
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

So I think it is pretty safe to say that religion is embedded in this country at least as much as hockey is in yours.
