I noticed that, it's so weird America being the anomaly. It's a predominantly "Protestant" country but it actually behaves more like a predominantly Catholic country. Historically most of the Protestant countries have tended to be relatively more secular, and certainly are today.
It's even more ironic when you consider that secularism was supposed to be one of the core principles the country was built on in the early years (and I think still the only Western country without "God" in the constitution). That went downhill fast...

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
