I buy that. :) Religion overall is not really the big issue, though. I've known Catholics, Jews, Pagans, etc., but for none of them was it as big a deal as rejecting the Christian God seems to be for US Americans.
In Germany, you can totally get away with never thinking much about Christianity, but you cannot get away with never confronting Hitler's shadow. It's quite the opposite here. And I find it fascinating that what we call Vergangenheitsbewaeltigung (dealing with the past) is not really done here, whereas Germans are completely obsessed with it.
