Post Christian America?

Not even close. I read an article in the USA Today that was published Monday April 17Th 2009 about the "post christian America" Throughout the article they explore different aspects of Christianity through polls and raw information. The conclusion at the end of the article says that the post christian world is no where near its the questions that are being asked when taking polls on "what religion people are."
It is said that instead of asking people what religion people are we need to start asking people if they are simply a believer in God, or if they are Christian. Just people you don't belong to a denomination doesn't mean your not a christian. More and more people these days are remaining non denominational claiming they are just christian. So is this becoming a post christian America, Not even close.
I couldn't agree with this article more to be honest. I was bored and raised a Lutheran and although when I go home I still attend my Lutheran church I would consider myself more non denominational then anything. I believe religion is simply a segregation to Gods word and its not about the church I attend or the name I put on my Christianity its the relationship I have with God when no one is around that counts
