They said it, when hell freezes over, I get a three way!

Seriously, though, no single religion is interpreted and practiced similarly enough by its members to prevent conflict. All of the religions you named, especially Christianity, have multiple schools of thought on how they should be practiced and interpreted. It would only allow people to make blanket statements like "our Christian nation" without being completely full of shit.

On another note, if we don't yet have peace on earth, and the definition of the Messiah is the one who will bring peace to the earth, how can Christians reconcile their denial about Jesus being the Messiah? I mean, my toaster, by definition, is not a Mercedes. Just because I choose to believe that it is a Mercedes doesn't make me less in denial of the reality that my toaster is just a toaster, and it doesn't make my toaster into a Mercedes just by my wishing it. I can, however, convince other people that my toaster is a Mercedes, because their are a lot of stupid, gullible, and emotionally needy people in the world. At what point of insane behavior are you allowed to stop the believers from shaping your world based on their denial and/or delusion?
