Oh true!! I agree with you. I guess what I meant was we as a country are based on Christian ideals, but not specifically one religious affiliation, i.e., Baptist, Catholic or Lutheran. All of these and a few more are still based on the Bible, i.e., Christianity.

I don't have any numbers, but I would guess that most Americans identify with some Christian religion as oppposed to Hinduism, Bhuddism, or even Muslim, although these religions are becoming more common in the US.
