I live in Bryant, a small town in Arkansas, and I can assure you it's well below the Mason-Dixon line.

And in Bryant, when you discuss your Christianity, are you "used to it being shouted down," and do people consider you "crazy to publicly proclaim it?" Do the people in Bryant assume that anyone who discusses their Christianity "is a nut, a fanatic, and is shoving something down [their] throats?" I would be very surprised if that was the case.

I know that in my twin hometowns, Chattanooga, TN, and Houston, TX, public affirmations of Christian belief are viewed as perfectly normal, and it is not the least bit "shocking to hear any mention of religion in public."
