Re: georgia is ground zero for (none / 0)
Oh, my dear HiD, no.  There's plenty of faux-Christianity in Jawjuh, but it's is nothing compared with places like Louisiana, Alabama, or -- the most insane of all -- Oklahoma.  Georgia's just stuck with some Old South nuts who'll eventually die off, but those other three operate in an entirely different dimension of crazy.

Hell, Obama only lost Georgia by 5 points, maybe a bit less (haven't checked the scores in a few weeks at the state level).  Give it another few cycles.

Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.

I've spent very little time in the south but having a city like Atlanta radiating out modern values has to help tremendously. Alabama, Louisiana, and Oklahoma have no such city.

you are the media you consume.

I wouldn't call the values "modern," except for the actual city core.  The suburbs are not filled with total Neanderthals, but they aren't exactly San Francisco either.

But basically, yeah, that's the long and the short of it.

Could be worse.  Imagine Louisiana without New Orleans.
