Is America not a melting pot?

Even today, it seems that people don't collectively celebrate the diversity of people, culture, faiths and non-faiths in the United States.

Controversy over gay marriage and the separation of church and state come to my mind. The United States either is a melting pot of diverse people or it's not. We need to celebrate the many religions in our country as well as the non-theists of this country or we collectively as a country are not practicing what we preach: A melting pot of diverse people, cultures, faiths and non-faiths.

Why must Christianity, Mormonism or other religions try to dictate morality as law? It's proven that countries with more religion than not are the most lawless of countries. See United Nations reports on countries with little religion. These reports show the most secular countries have the least amount of crime. Why pretend these reports do not exist? Why pretend these facts are not true?

As most religious faiths demand their followers to spread their gospel throughout the world, isn't it obvious that one will never be able to take over the entire world? I'm sure the followers of each religious faith secretly hope this happens.

If one religious faith is able to spread itself to every person on earth, what is the point? It would be the same as one corporation trying to grow bigger and bigger and bigger. What if one company becomes so big that there is only one corporation left in the world which runs the entire world? What's the point? If one corporation ran the entire world, what would they achieve? Happiness? Total control of the money flow on earth? Hell, what a waste of time trying to become the biggest religion or corporation on earth.

This is one reason why religion should not try to make it's beliefs into law. How would Christians like it if Mormonism or Islam was made into law and was shoved down Christian's throats?
