41. The religious right RAN Europe for centuries.
Every European country has had long periods of their history under the thumb of religious zealots. So, the populations there are well aware of the disastrous consequences of allowing church to influence state. Our founders also knew this all too well.

The US on the other hand, has no historical experience with religious right-wing rule. Most of the sheeple know nothing of the European experience and are oblivious to the threat.
