the economic stratification of the city is grotesque though and it's a miracle that there haven't been class riots in the streets. That might be because there's about 50000(!!!) officers in the NYPD. It's basically a municipal army.
In fact the city is, in general, very neo-classical and very pagan. Not that anyone is explicitly doing devotional worship, just that you are far more likely to find Greek, Roman, Egyptian, or even Persian and Babylonian symbols around then you are to find Christian symbols.

There are plenty of churches of course. I wonder sometimes what the attendance is like inside. This isn't like a Southern city with evangelical mega-churches. Truly, I don't know.
