Sounds like the U.S. is a mess from what I've gathered from different people. But here, 80% of my friends are Christians and they are good people. Beneficial to society in many ways, even if along the line they have to preach and tie Jesus to their actions to get people wondering.
I think it depends a lot on where you live in the U.S. I live in the Pacific Northwest, which tends to be quite liberal and doesn't seem to be nearly as religious as the south and midwest, at least in the more populated areas. I've traveled extensively through the western U.S., midwest, and south and it really does vary regionally.
Frankly, for the most part, I think it's a very vocal minority that gets noticed.
