Let's look at American history, for a minute. The majority of the leadership in the US has identified themselves in some form or fashion as "Christian." And these early Christian leaders gave us slavery, child labor, refusal of women to vote, and prohibiting homosexuals to marry.

The freedoms of the US came from secularism. To think otherwise means you don't know jack about American history.
