I personally wouldn't give a hoot about American politics if funding proposals wern't so tightly intertwined with political influence as to how, where, and to what extent good (be it expensive)science is done in this country. No money for particle physics (cf Dec 07 budget cuts) but billions and trillions for wasteful and worthless undeclared Terror Wars.
And as for religion, I am anxiously awaiting the LHC to reveal the emergence of God incarnate, manifest as Peter Higgs. What's the upper limit on the "God Particle's" mass? About 250 GeV as I understand the theory behind the Higgs mechanism.
