This just confirms that a few centuries ago, the Atlantic acted as a diffusion filter through which sheeple did not readily pass. An unfortunate side effect of modern technology was to degrade this effect.

I am not quite sure what that means; other than that you cannot think of a sane response, and thus must attempt to throw random garbage in place of an argument. But, still, let's have a little look at a few centuries ago (which is necessarily before the American revolution, for what its worth).
A few centuries ago England was a Christian country. Some of our chaps (I suppose one might call them sheeple if one wanted to be offensive without actually making any reasonable point) left, and formed a country which, though never formally Christian (though some of its constituent parts retained established churches for a while), had a clear majority of Christians, and allowed Christian morality to guide them. Then they allowed some judicial fascists to take over, and to impose the minority view of public life as a 'religion-free zone'.
That was their choice, they choose a particular road on which to travel, and far be it for a foreigner to tell them not to continue. But the English homeland remained, and still remains a Christian land in law, and far be it for them to impose their views on us either.
In other words. Sort yourselves out before telling this Christian land that it should join you in state-mandated saecularism.
