Yes, I admit the scouts require a belief. A belief in our country, our government, themselves, their scoutmasters, and their fellow scouts will suffice quite fine I believe. Humility is a quality that can be imbed into a person without the use of religion though. I know many a fine atheists and agnostics.
Also, you mentioned bhuddists in your list. The majority of bhuddists do not actually worship bhudda, but merely follow his philosophies. ^.^ And satanism has nothing to do with the christian idea of satan. Just a couple tidbits of knowledge I thought I might share.
Thomas Jefferson, one of our finest founding forefathers, was actually quite possibly atheist. Look up Thomas Jefferson quotes and you'll find many which encourage questioning of ones faith, as well as the bible. Many others in a sense 'bashing' christianity. I'll try and find a few for ya now so you dont have to bother unless you want to. ^.^

Lastly and by far the most appliable to this conversation:

So was it the liberal teachers that confused Thomas Jefferson into that last quote? Perhaps he was confused as I am on what this nation was founded upon. Well, seeing as Thomas Jefferson was a brilliant man, I am truly glad to be within his category of beliefs on this one.
And regarding bushes election ((note: election, not re-election)) that doesn't involve christianity in any large quantity. Yes, a number of people voted for him based on the fact that he claims to be a good-old fashioned christian, but a large number of people voted for him because what were their other options? I mean.. even I would have trouble voting for Kerry ((2 more years and Ill be voting on anything any everything. ^.^)) for a large majority, it was a choice between the lesser of two evils. And I could very much see why some would say Bush was that lesser evil.
