I saw something the other day on TV where some one said that 1/4 of Americans consider themselves "Evangelical Christians". Thought that was high, but a quick search today pulled up a wiki site (yeah, only a starting point) that confirms that figure.
America (as the wiki article points out) is deeply religious -one of the most religious in the world. To an extent this may reflect the nature of the founding fathers etc - religious "refugees" of one form or another.
Anyway, rumage around the site. Scary stuff, but also highlighting why Palin may sell so well....
