also, i hope you are not insinuating that organized religion has a purely negative effect on science/technology/culture/politics...this country has never not had strong religious ties (has any country been completely religion-free?)...you have no proof that America would be better or even half as good as it is now, if there was not strong religious conviction in the majority of people...and its a pretty juvenile view to think that the eradication of religion would solve most of the political/social problems of a country....
