Godliness in America

This guy has a legitimate point.  When, precisely, had humankind’s conviction to God brought us better times?

Obviously, the existence of the United States is just the blink of an eye in comparison to the history of our belief in God, but that doesn’t change too much.  Would we have preferred the Spanish Inquisition?  The Catholic Church’s demand to have the scientists of the day tortured to death?

How much have we learned from Thor, Zeus, or Isis that has benefitted our lives?
