Are you talking about all americans, or christians? The two are NOT interchangeable.

Both your surveys talk about a general population, not specific to the christian part, which is what the whole topic is about. The part about the UK is a strawman, as the discussion was about US christians.

This would be shredded in a debate class, since that's what your new meme seems to be about.
