We all seek confirmation of our supernatural beliefs (or lack of) from
others, it is just human nature. Some just lack the strength to coexist
with others who believe they are wrong. The problem gets exquisite when one
raises his children to "believe" and either he or they changes their mind
about that belief.

The cockiness comes from the fact that this is a biblical country, no one
else is even allowed into federal power, so we are literally enveloped in
"confirmation."

Actually, this is a free country where we can practice any religion we want.
It's not a Christian country. However, the religious right who starts wars with
people in the middle east based on what God says in that Israel must be in order
for the messiah to return...oh forget it. Bunch of kooks.
