Poll: Religious Devotion High in U.S.

Published on June 6, 2005 By Island Dog In Politics

Not good for the ACLU.

Religious devotion sets the United States apart from some of its closest allies. Americans profess unquestioning belief in God and are far more willing to mix faith and politics than people in other countries, AP-Ipsos polling found.

In Western Europe, where Pope Benedict XVI complains that growing secularism has left churches unfilled on Sundays, people are the least devout among the 10 countries surveyed for The Associated Press by Ipsos.

Where are the people who said religious people are in the minority in this country?

Wonderful. But this is no reason to mingle church and state, and I suppose this is what you're driving at. That would be a huge mistake.
