The first point is why I will not go to Greek churches anymore unless it is the sole Orthodox church around. In the USA they tend to treat the church more like a social club with a priest attached to it. If today's Greeks are indicative of their ancestors than it is simply miraculous that Sts. Cyril and Methodius even became missionaries in the first place.
I think it's more of a case that Greek immigrants have been around here longer, more integrated, and thus more contaminated by an antithetical culture.
My dad is a Protestant/Catholic engineer who travelled across Europe on various business trips, and he always points out Greece as his favorite location because people were the most hospitable and loving. He even bought an icon of Christ from Greece for my Evangelical minister grandfather, who hung it on his wall till his death.
