Actually, if you stay in a hotel in Utah all the rooms have Books of Mormon in them. (Of course). And in my hometown of Las Vegas, the hotel bibles are all gold-covered. So at least they try, right?

I'm with you on the black thing - not only are not all black people American, but they're not all African either. It always pissed off my friend whose family came from Jamaica to be called African-American.
