USA, Canada / Polish Americans and religion [28]

dzień dobry everyone! (Well, its the morning in Poland =P)

Anyway, I'm new to the forums, but I also have a question.
Being 100% polish and a second generation immigrant family, I am proud of my polish heritage. The problem I have though is that I am not as religious as most Polish-Americans are (or at least thats what I see). Is really abnormal when it comes to being a Polish-American to not be very religious?

Well, it's 2 a.m. here...

Early, early morning

But, when I see and talk to other polish people, it seems that many are, in fact really religious.

So why don't you speak fluent Polish?

Other than at home, I was really never shown the language. Plus we speak both English and Polish at my home

I don't want to start a heated discussion here.

Anyway, I dont want to be rude or immature, but to the people I talk to who are Polish, they seem to not be able to take a joke towards religion, and are immediately offended.
