No it doesn't, what is going on in the south that isn't going on in the rest of the nation when it comes to religious beliefs and how they go about their daily lives? nothing. they go about their daily lives just how we do.

I didn't admit I was wrong, obviously you can't detect sarcasm.

I don't have to explain a thing to you. Get lost. Texas is part of the south culturally, demographically, linguistically, and historically. Badabing. Badaboom. There you go. Oh no, wait..it's just like your home state of Minnesota. There's no such thing as regions. Everyone talks the same, acts the same, politically believes the same, has the same flora and fauna, etc. It's a nice dream, but it's not true.

Yes, most people here speak English, and people either support Republicans or Democrats.
A lot like the rest of the country.

Here is a fact. East Texas is considered the far western extention of the deep south. The south culturally starts to slowly fade in central texas. Now most of the population in Texas is in the eastern portion of the state. A lot of Texans are culturally southern with a twang. So basically what I'm saying is if you ask a Texan if they are southern they will likely say yes because of the part of Texas they are from. Now far west Texas is where the southwest talk comes in but unfortunately a small percentage of residents live in that area.
