I would remind you that you don't have 'Christianity' in your backyard so to speak. Personally I dislike even saying that in its current state we are the Christian country that so many claim us to be. If you want to look at Christianity I suggest you look at Greece, and Ukraine as far better examples in the modern world. Pre-soviet Russia would be even better, but the damage done under the Bolsheviks is so widespread you have to look hard to find the survivors. American Christianity is so many steps removed that it really isn't even based on the same things anymore, the illogic and inconsistancies stem from them having lost the heart of the religion and desparately trying to find something to replace it with.
