Apparently we have always been this way. If there is any evidence that we any more sane on religious/science type questions than we are now, would someone please present it to me? I do not believe we have grown more fundamentalist in the last 40 years. The US has always been an extremely fundamentalist country. Like I said, if you have some evidence that we were even less nuts on religious questions than we are today, let me see the evidence. I would love to see it.
