[ America - a Hindu Nation‏ ]

America is not a Christian nation. We are, it is true, a nation founded
by Christians, and according to a 2008 survey, 76 percent of us continue
to identify as Christian (still, that's the lowest percentage in American
history). Of course, we are not a Hindu—or Muslim, or Jewish, or
Wiccan—nation, either. A million-plus Hindus live in the United States,
a fraction of the billion who live on Earth. But recent poll data show that
conceptually, at least, we are slowly becoming more like Hindus and less
like traditional Christians in the ways we think about God, our selves,
each other, and eternity.More
