That's because you've willed yourself to be blind. There have been numerous studies and polls showing that christians are fast declining in the US, and atheism on the rise.

2) A piece written by a man who seems to believe that it is discriminatory and wrong to not legislate according to the "morals" in the bible, citing a different study. http://www.cnsnews.com/commentary/alex-m...-america-0
3) A Grauniad piece which looks at different evidences showing how low religiousness (rather than religiosity, which is simply a profession of belief without any meaning) is in the US, citing studies showing that as little as 20% of Americans go to church on a Sunday (something pretty much all christian denominations demand as a necessary). https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/o...ious-right
I don't mind if you want to delude yourself about the health of religious belief in your country. But don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.
