>>To me it's mind boggling that 99.8% of the worlds population still belives in some supernational 'guy in the sky' type of religion.

>>I won't speak for people outside the U.S. - but in my opinion, a pretty high % of Americans pay lip service to religion. Regardless of reason (out of fear, out of "duty", out of upbringing, etc.), I don't think many Americans take religion seriously.

>I definitely disagree with you there. Sure, many pay lip service, as you say. But we have more than our share of true believers. Somewhere between 30 and 40% of Americans describe themselves as evangelical Christians. Those folks aren't just paying lip service.

Well if they're not paying lip service, and there is 30 to 40% of these 'evangelical Chrisitians' running around in the USA, then they're a bunch of lying hypocrites....otherwise poverty and homelessness would be completely wipped out in the USA.
