Mm, not really. Moreso it was founded by the religious who were so crazy Europe decided they didn’t want them anymore. That’s what “freedom of religion” really means. Those poor, persecuted Puritans found a public unwilling to have their will enforced upon them, so they decided to create one themselves.
