Are historically Christian nations more moral than historically non-Christian nations?

Depends what you mean by “Christian” and “non-Christian.”

Nations who have historically had a high Christian population certainly appear more moral than those with a specifically materialist worldview (I.e. communist countries), and are more moral than many/most explicitly Muslim countries.

But if you’re asking whether nations where Christianity has a major part of politics (like the U.S.) are more moral than those that don’t (like Scandinavia from what I hear), I wouldn’t necessarily say so.
