Wanna see how sad the general world knowledge of americans is?
only mexico even came close to our low score.
On the other hand, those Swedes are on top of their shit.

yeah, but you grew up in Virginia =P (kidding, dear).
Really that means that you have the same odd assumptions that Ry and I do. I remember reading an article not too long ago on missionaries which said that Christianity had surpassed other religions, but that the figures were not indicative of what missionaries thought it was, more to do with population growth in certain areas of the world and with the rising tide of Americanism... otherwise I would have guessed either Islam or Buddhism.

If I were a true Virginian, I would have railed about how there wasn't a Southern Baptist category, those heathens. Or waved my Confederate flag in the air as a retort. Either one will do. ;)
