76. It doesn't freaking matter...
Things happened the way they did because there were just more Christians than anyone else.

Our forefathers were well aware of what religion did to Europe ...
As they were aware of what monarchies did.

So in an effort to avoid that fate they choose to keep religion seperated...
outside of the pomp and circumstance to keep the masses of Christians comfortable.

Period.

If different religions had been more prevelant... they may have been more prevelant.

Our forefathers --- in the Treaty of Tripoli sought peace with the Muslims in claiming this is not a Christian nation....
