Read article 11 of the Treaty of Tripoli for a quick refresher on Americas foundation.
It's been well known the Founding Fathers weren't devout Christians...
But the Puritans were. And our history has been of a Puritanical culture.
Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote about this - how we can never escape the Christian piety.
Hell as late as the early 20th century we outlawed booze in America over largely religious reasons.
As they famously said in Eurotrip..."we live in a Nation founded by prudes." "Over in Europe they don't have the hangups we do about drugs and sex."
