Well said. The American propensity to believe that everyone else does or should share one's faith is so common we lurch into things like calling the response to 9/11 a crusade. Sometimes it makes matter worse.

You know the word crusade was used in WW2..certainly not a religious war. The use of the word was most unfortunate because of the perception of others.

Well it's a damn sad day when people feel more open to discuss their stinkin sex lives publicly than their faith. Signs of success for the humanist lobby in their efforts to banish public expressions of faith I suppose.
