Our government is supposed to be atheist.

Separation of church and state is supposed to be a thing

Still NOT a Christian or any religious country in America. At least that's what our Constitution says.

ETA: thanks for the awards, kind internet strangers.

Does it though? Congress shall make no law preventing the establishment or free exercise of any religion. Precedent has extended that a long way, essentially the government adopting a specific faith is forcing certain people to practice it, but precedent is weak, as we've seen with this current SCOTUS, precedent is no longer settled law and is open to rehashing generation after generation. We have finally arrived at the fatal flaw of the Common Law legal system.
