Here goes—nothing really changes other than getting rid of any reference to god or spirituality in all the laws of the land since we know God doesn’t exist. Freedom of religion is a nonsequitor under your conditions so we delete it.
Sonny is right religion is part of eastern philosophy and part of Indian, Japanese and Chinese concepts of right and wrong, Giri, Joss or Karma all relate to Buddhist tenets and concepts as well as Shintoism and its reverence for nature, ancestors, and divine Kami. They were however free of the ridiculous western notions of puritanism, and original sin! As such religion was less restrictive and their concepts of right and wrong were vastly different then our own. Only recently have laws become more westernized and oriented to our own sense of right and wrong–likely due to our influence and spread of our culture.
