The U.S. is off the spectrum in religious commitment.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
America is an unusually religious nation.
Notoriously, the United States is the most religious of the Western advanced nations. It's a bit mysterious why that is.
Americans deserve to have their religious beliefs and practices protected. Religious freedom is too important to be trampled by insensitive bureaucracy or bad policy.
Religious freedom opens a door for Americans that is closed to too many others around the world. But whether we walk through that door, and what we do with our lives after we do, is up to us.
Government needs to stay out of the religion business altogether.
It strikes me as odd that the free exercise of religious faith is sometimes treated as a problem, something America is stuck with instead of blessed with.
Organised religion, organised anything, requires commitment and requires an engagement with something. A lot of the time, we don't want to commit.
Just in our lifetime our society has become looser and more private, it becomes extremely difficult to hold to any permanent commitment whatever, least of all to organized religion.
I think the real problem for American religion are those minority of fundamentalists who try to identify political policies with religion.
Politics in America is the binding secular religion.
