Actually I did check it out but not on the CIA page and I found the percentage of Jews in Israel to be somewhere between 78-80% on different sites. Someone had told me the 60% and I should have checked it out.
Never the less The percentage of Christians in America was 85% in 2000. It nay be less now because of our immigration policies. The point stands. Israel is called a Jewish nation and they have a smaller percentage of Jews(78-80%)than we have Christians in this country(85%).Yet a lot of people don't want to admit we are a Christian nation.Israel is called a Jewish nation and we are a Christian Nation. The Supreme court took on this issue in the 1800's and I am not sure for how long but I believe they debated the issue for a few years. They did say,"indeed America is a Christian nation".I could pull that case up if need
for stats,
be.

The differnce is not demographics, but intent. We were founded not as a haven for a particular religion (as Israel was), but as a haven for freedom, including freedom of religion. According to the Constitution, the Episcopalian has the same rights as the Catholic and the Hindu, regardless of which is in the majority at the time.
