Only recently have they turned away from christianity and now they are experiencing huge economic problems and losing their competitive edge to other nations like China, India and Korea who have growing christian populations.
Are you seriously intimating that the reason the US made more advances in science and technology during the Cold War was because of its Christianity? That is the mother of all non sequiturs if you ask me.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
