Religious societies that are bad = religious societies that were bad because they were religious
It's much more complicated than simple equations like that, is my point. Multiple issues working in concert, rather than "oh, this state is secular, it's no wonder they failed without good christian morals," or "oh, this state is christian, no wonder they failed, belonging as they do to an ancient death cult that brooks no opposition."
That has been my position from the very beginning.
