Then, just between you and me, I think we can take the Buddhists, passive bunch that they are. Who's left? Shinto? Bunch of interior decorators. Santeria? Well, yeah, they kind of scare me, too, but there ain't that many of them. The Catholics are in disarray, but The Tribe (hi paigs!) has nukes. But I'll have tea with a vicar any day.
When you get right down to it, the only ones that really bother me are the ones that think God talks to them and tells them to do stuff. It seems like we've got one of those in the White House, and a good few more around him who probably believe it even more strongly than he does.

There was a time in my life when I, too, was convinced that gawd was speaking to me. But I quit using the shrooms, and the blessed silence returned.
If you are an infidel, is there a long distance in the sanity continuum between believing in Thor, and believing that Thor speaks to you? I think you draw a distinction that is more centered on how you would like to perceive Bush than on any substantive difference in wackdom.
