...where secular authorities traditionally allowed for a huge influence of religion on their policies, as is still the case in a great number of nominally secular states. Ban on divorce and contraception was entirely motivated by religion.

As religious as Americans may appear - USA is a secular country. And sure - historically there were times, when puritan religious morality had strong influence on politics - like the whole prohibition "experiment" - but at least you couldn't go to jail for a pack of rubbers in recent history.

I have no thoughts on Ireland, even though my two daughters are Irish citizens as they live in Spain ....
