over 70% of people in the U.S.A. are Christian. Even more are religious. Only a fraction are atheist today. Consider this fact and know that the only other countries this religious are in the Middle East. .

I want to know where you get this so called "fact" from
Because in central and south america the population is 90% catholic the rest is "other" So to say that Fact only the middle east is as religious as the U.S.A. is really kind of ignorant.

Many many many contries are just as or more religious than the U.S.A.

there are the reports of religion in the united states. AKA less than 2% of the population is atheist (or will admit it).



* Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."1
* Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them"
* 1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
* Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."


You tell me where ANY religion CONDONES homosexuality, and i'll eat my words.

Perhaps you do not remeber your own words. You stated as fact that the onlyother countriesin the world more religious than the USA are in the middle east.
I Called bullshit and pointed out latin america. and you link something that only touches on religion in america?I still call bullshit

And where do any of those passages call it a deadly sin?
Do you even know what the term "deadly sin" means?
Please learn of what you speak before spouting terms like "deadly sin"
Which is a term created by catholic doctrine not the bible.
Matter of fact there is no such think as a "deadly sin" in the bible

So again please quote me a passage where it is stated it is a "deadly sin"
Still Bet you can't

Again I call bullshit. you stated no other country has a higher %pop of people who are religious that the us except for middle east.
Even your own link shows almost every latin america country in fact has a higher population % of people with religious belifs.
Your original statment had nothing to do with % of atheists.and BTW the non on your survey link also includes those who declined to answer
So yet again you have twisted something to fit your idea..Oh wait is this not what you are acusing religion of doing. Hypocrite

explain to me how if the other countries have a high % of atheists/buddhists than how can they also have a higher % of religious believers? Unless you are trying to exceed 100%.

Also, people who decline to answer I am willing to bet are atheists but, of course, are too afraid to admit it due to the fact that atheists are persecuted more than any other minority.
