Really, really getting tired of people who don't live here bashing on my country. While that may not be what you mean, that is how it's seen. Your description is not what the melting pot is, and anyone who has traveled and spoken to the people here would see that. What religion? I want the whole world to be followers of Christ...what are you hoping for? What is the dominant culture here? I am from the south, lived in all the states in Dixie, and can tell you, we all identify as Southerners, but Tennessee is as different from Alabama as Senegal is from Iceland. Even our barbecue varies from place to place....regional dialects, clothing, sweet tea vs. unsweet, all these things shift in patterns as large as states, or as small as city blocks. Not only do we not have a homogenized culture, we don't want one. Please don't make generalizations based on assumptions and wrongs done to you by people you have dealt with in the past.
