Well, actually, the US constitution is far more secular than most European constitutions and offers far better protections to atheists, agnostics and secularists.
Britain has an officially established Christian church and bishops sit, unelected, in one of its legislative houses. Germany mandates taxpayer funded dowries to a mainline Christian church. In Ireland, to this day, although the Catholic Church is no longer officially recognised as pre-eminent by the constitution, most primary schools are officially run by the Catholic Church. None of these situations are remotely conceivable in the US, precisely because of the US's constitutionally mandated separation of church and state. Few other countries on the planet provide such strong legal protections for the rights of non-believers.
It's the US, at its core, that has a secular world view, not Europe. That's part of the reason it was founded. Perhaps you are living in the wrong continent.
All true except the last bit. The Founders of our country did reject state-sponsored religion and all its trappings. But from the Declaration on they recognized an authority above the State, the need for freedom of religion and conscience to give legitimacy to a government, and that only a citizenry reliant on faith and virtue could hope to succeed at self-government.
I think they have been proven right on all 3.
