Well, there are many differences. The most important one is, I would say, the sense of life. Americans are friendlier and way more benevolent. I am German and would love to go to the USA. Perhaps via Green Card after the university.
I lived in Neu-Ulm, Germany for three years and German-culture, as i remember, was very different from American culture. Now how the difference between the two falls under a religious question is a 'twist' because no question is stupid. As a poet and a spiritual person by nature, i feel in love with everything German: food, music, art and of course their abundance of science, philosophy and German-religions/mythology. The country itself is a spiritual center so-to-speak;in that, the breathtaking beauty of the forests, and mountains and of course the awesome Audobahn! Germans are more into the essence of
life(appreciating the unique aspects of nature, art and good food). American culture, in a spiritual aspect is mostly superficial, material and glutonous. Americans have no substance really(spiritually speaking), and I'll attempt to elaborate. In America, there is no pause and reflection, only rush- on the constant go, and that is what deprives Americans of really experiencing the elegance of nature and all of life. Germans are a deep and proud people, and deservedly so; many of the world's greatest philosophers and engineering originate from Germany or Austria. As an American who adores this country, it is perhaps the least spiritual country in the world, although its religious elements exceeds the rest of the globe. An obese person is just that=obese! If you want an agreeable place to get in tune with nature and yourself, go to Germany; if you want constant chaos and confusion amidst hypocrisy and vice, just stay right here in America.
Some aspects of German culture are different than that of the U.S., some aren't.

No. There are many German cultures all over the world including here in the US as well. I recently took a German class in college here and my German professor is married to a German woman and they regularly practice their German culture. I have also heard of many accounts of other Germans that practice their culture in different parts of the US.
The German word for culture is "Kultur".
People from different countries combine into one culture.
Yes, shaking hands is a common form of greeting and part of German culture. In American culture, handshakes are also common but might vary depending on the region or situation.
