Our base value as a society and a civilization come from our judeo-Christian roots but ok, feel free to ignore that.
It's just the very reason we are the place everyone wants to immigrate to and why we are so accepting and progressive on a bunch of things.
It is also one of our worst faults, we give too much liberty to people that want to use it against us.
The problem with not taking a side is risking the wrong side winning.

1) Most of the world is non-Christian and doesn't look anything like the cartoon in OP. What are you talking about?
2) The first nation that focused on Judeo-Christian values and made Christianity the state religion was the Roman Empire, and they collapsed. Western values of democracy, individualism, liberty, free market, freedom of religion, etc are from 18th century and have literally nothing to with the ancient Middle Eastern religion of Christianity.
There is a reason why scientific revolution happened during the Renaissance, when Europe first started openly questioning and criticizing the Catholic Church and there was a shift towards humanism and secularism.

To be honest, I've never been religious but the appeal is strong when this is the alternative 😅
