- coliveira 7y agoThere is a difference between having an "official religion" and being religious. Most people in South America go to church, but are very irreligious. God for us is just something abstract that you accept for convenience. If you asked people if they believe that god requires them to do something, they will mostly tell that each one should care of their own life and religion should get out of their business. In the US, a good part of the population believes that religion should dictate social laws.
