The Godless French?

It seems that the French have a problem with God (shocker!)

France said Monday it could not accept references to God and Christianity in a European Union constitution. link

Earlier this year it was noted: "The French President Jacques Chirac has made it clear that he will defend the lay character of the French state and is not going to accept a 'religious reference' in the EU Constitution."

No wonder the press in the US love the French! (see chart below)
