MODERATORS
Everyone outside of America expecting Americans to place much higher on this chart:
I'm inside America and our placement makes me question their methods and/or how they worded the questions.
It would be nice if it were true. I just don't think it is.
I would've been like that 10–15 years ago, now I am just glad they are not on the very top (yet?)
Edit: wait, did you mean they should be less accepting of other religions? I'm confused
They meant non-Americans would expect the US to rank at the top, being hardcore christians denying any other religion. I am such a non-American and was surprised at this graphic. Seems that image we have of them is not representative of the US population.
The hardcore christians don't dominate everywhere equally. You'll hear much more religious fervor in southern and rural areas, generally. The hardcore christians are also the loudest, so where they do reside, they'll be speaking over anyone who disagrees with them.
America in general is just "the cities" and "the countryside" tbh, effectively two different nations side by side.
As an American, I feel like... so like if I'm the smartest person in the world, that's so fucked for me and the world. That kind of sentiment.
Yeah, that seems to make more sense than what I assumed of other people wishing Americans to be more tolerant. I mean, we do wish, I guess
Thanks
