Need to get my passport

A recent study shows that 92% of Americans believe in God. In an unrelated note, my own personal research indicates that 92% of Americans are bad at biology.

Not really fair to say that everyone who says they believe in god to some survey would support intelligent design, but I think it's still scary to live in a country where the vast majority believe in god. It's not really the vast majority part that freaks me out, but the portion of that 92% that make decisions (like voting) based on religious beliefs, that scare me. I wish I had written a book two thousand years ago that could sway half the voters in this country just as much as a candidate's ability to speak well.

On the other hand... is any other country any better?
