I personally don't have a problem with religious people, its just when they start to persecute others when it becomes a problem. I saw this thing on Prayer a while ago, and a bunch of Christians were asked "If a Buddist prayed for another person to become better, would his or her prayers be answered?" or something like that, they answered "No, because they're not praying to the one true God. Their prayers will be ignored. Only ours will be answered.". Now, even though we do have some quite decent Christians [and i say that because they think that God will let you into Heaven if your Heart is in the right place and not by what religion you were brought up] it seems that most of America is a rather large, Christian-bastard. This is one of the only reasons i dislike America, because of its bastard-overly-persecutionlyness-of-other-Religions. Its very Hitler-esque.
Anyway, God controls everything aside from us, right? So, why does America get everything from Forest fires to Tsunami's to Hurricanes? The majority of natural disasters happens to America. Surely this is God saying "O-M-G, STOP BEING SUCH WANKERS!!". England hardly ever gets such badness. We only get a flood. I don't think God likes America much.
I do think its a shame though that Americans will never be able to get away from the cycle of the Bible. They're force fed it viciously from birth and even though you get the few Americans who will lead their own way in life, not dictated by a book, the majority will obey the Bible for ever more. Have kids. And force it onto them. Its worrying to think that such an old book is the cause of so much hatred.
