Anecdotal evidence can be dismissed by a similar counterargument. I have never met a single American who would tell me to do that, and only maybe a couple who would consider doing that themselves. And I've met all kinds of Americans.

I am an American.
It absolutely is like that. It's why I refuse to go shop on Thanksgiving or "Black Friday".

Starting a football game with a prayer does not a Christian nation make. I would also say that it was not a Christian nation back when Christian could be used to mean neighborly, or are you going to ignore how non-whites where treated?
When a single religion is found to prominent in nearly all social gatherings ( such as football ) games, I think that that's a pretty good indication of said faith's national supremacy. And nothing of what I said had anything to do with race. Even during that time, non-whites were also overwhelmingly Christian.

Again, 'America' doesn't tell you that. It's your retailer.
Also, for the record, I'm not against Vassenor's proposition just above me. Economic considerations are not as important as those of basic public safety.

God had Moses tell the Israelites not to mistreat foreigners in their midst.
America tells people foreigners in their midst is a latent threat to be feared and hated.

Nope. You're ignoring that all the news and all the economists talk about is about how this orgy of spending is good for America.
It absolutely IS America talking.
