Light-hearted as my sandwich love fest was, it does touch on one of the aspects where America is truly one of the greatest nations of Earth. Cultural diversity, the melting pot is great, you can get delicious food and art from anywhere in the world here. It isn't rich in origin, it's never going to be like eating a local delicacy or seeing some artistic expression in it's native location, but damn if we don't have the ability to taste (both physically and spiritually) a bit of everything humanity has to offer.
Well put!!! and why doesn't Europe serve lots of ice with their drinks? Who the heck likes room tempature water when eating out?
More people come here than to any other. Ask them.
That's kind of true. 'murica receives the highest total number of immigrants. But is it really fair to compare the US population of 320MM to the UAE (9MM) or Canada (35MM)? When you compare countries receiving immigrants per capita, we're not even in the top 10.

Interesting. You learn something new every day.
Watch Restaurant: Impossible with Robert Irvine. First thing he usually does is check the ice machine, which is almost always super gross with bacteria and mold.
I would truly miss the array of sandwich opportunities in America, though I am pretty sure that I would put the excellent breads and cured meats of Italy to better use than the natives do.
I just want to clarify that I am not being snarky, sarcastic, or otherwise provocative. America is the sandwich king of the world, and I am a sandwich kind of man. Soup, keep it. Salad, sure, let's dance until my true love arrives. Sandwich, welcome home love.
The great Cuban sandwich, invented in Tampa, is the best sandwich in world history! We need a sandwich thread.
Why? Our country was based on the principals of Christianity.
Not politically. The founding fathers quite specifically didn't want that.
I drove past a church on my way to get coffee on the weekend and their sign read: "church and state is separated by god". I just laughed as I drove by.

Hmm. So even God agrees that they need to be separated. Nice. I wonder if that is what they meant? It's not even grammatically correct, lol.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

I think it meant in heaven. but while on earth, church shouldn't be separated from anything, is what I got from it.

Huh.... God isn't necessarily just in Heaven, you know?.... And is there a state in Heaven? Or church? And if so, why in the world would he separate them then? I dunno, if that is what they meant, then that is even more stupid that I first thought.

There's plenty of pastors that are comfortable with integrating science into their beliefs. They probably don't get as much camera time as the ding bats.

Just on the wikipedia page of the nutjob Montana US house special election probable winner (who has Russian ties, obviously) that just assaulted a journalist, and I read he is a believer in young earth creationism. Clinking on the link to find out what the eff that is said that a 2011 Gallup survey reports that 30% of U.S. adults say they interpret the Bible literally. So again I feel the answer to this thread is an easy No.
^^^ Echoed to the above. At some point the flat earthers and bible thumpers need not be given a platform to speak.
I'm with you there, but you have to realise that would be the immediate death of conservatism.
Extreme conservatism? and I'll meet you half way if you agree
If flat earthers and Bible nuts lost the right to vote, conservatism would be dead. At the first election. Not that all conservatives are nuts, it's just there aren't enough to win anything without the nuts on your side.

And that is the worst part of being a conservative, the nuts you don't want.
And here we have the middle where Pearl Jam fans meet.
