    From Wikipedia:

    Bible Belt is an informal term for an area of the United States in which socially conservative evangelical Protestantism is a significant part of the culture and Christian church attendance across the denominations is extremely high.

    The Bible Belt consists of much of the Southern United States and part of the Southwestern United States. During the colonial period (1607–1776), the South was a stronghold of the Anglican church. Its transition to a stronghold of non-Anglican Protestantism occurred gradually over the next century as a series of religious revival movements, many associated with the Baptist denomination, gained great popularity in the region
    yup thats it alright land of the redneck and proud of it
    A bible-belt is a place in the US that is filled with bible-bashers. Everybody else has left for another place.
