The Official State Religion List The New IMPROVED Official State Religion List . And we got even MORE comments about that list, some of them too brilliant to ignore. We modified the list again, and presented to the world the list you will see below. (If you want to see the comments that led to the changes, and our reasoning for incorporating them into an official document, go here: Improved Official State Religion List.) Anyway, that's how we got the inspired document that you find here. So, look this list over, and decide if you can live with your official state religion (keeping in mind it might involve hot dishes, bingo, and/or virgin sacrifices). If you can't, start calling real estate agents in a state with a religion or other demographic grouping that you find more interesting. And if you have a better idea, then let me or David know. 1. California: Christian. But within its borders will be the Independent Hubbardite Duchy of Hollywood, and also the Cult of Fame with its many temples devoted to the worship of various actors, pop stars, and celebrities
