It appears to me that you have a very un-scientific hypothesis: that Americans are nearly all "retards" who believe in unscientific things (and I gave you a qualifier that you yourself did not use) while Canadians are nearly all intelligent, rationally-minded individuals who don't preoccupy themselves with such nonsense. A simple examination shows that you are generalizing, that your hypothesis is false in its strictest interpretation, and not even true on a more general level. You have not thought scientifically. You have thought like a bigot. But at least gay marriage is not an issue for you, so you can sleep soundly at night knowing you're not a bigot.

I don't believe this to be true, it just doesn't play a role in our governance. I am a product of the Catholic school system. A government funded religious public school system. Should be illegal but its not. How messed up is that? But it exists.I went through Canadian funded Catholic school from age 4 to age 19. I'm not sure what you are saying.
