It's simple, actually. Most in the left are unbelievers and most unbelievers are offended by the obvious superiority of the Judeo-Christian values among other worldviews. They look at history and they see the overwhelming positive influence and achievements of countries with Judeo-Christian underpinnings, so they embrace anything and everything that goes against it.

For the overwhelming majority of Christian history, Jews were persecuted as Christ Killers. This Judeo Christian nonsense is just something that was cooked up by modern apologists to create the illusion of diversity. And for the most part, Jews don't buy it other than the Orthodox minority.
Unless you've spent hundreds of millions in creating companies whose sole business model is manufacturing components for computers which say 'Made in USA'*: and whose sole consumer is you , all I'll say is one word: China.
Thus the annihilation of your 'argument'? It's simple, actually.
*- LGR's Clint Basinger bought an 'old new stock' IBM AT PC and did a setup video of such . It says 'Made in UK' on it: Scotland, to be precise. I have a Dell D630 laptop which says 'Made in Ireland' on it.
Scotland is mainly Presbyterian Protestant & Catholic. In the case of the latter, so is Ireland.
So unless you're prepared to admit that your particular denomination(s) which subscribe to a 19th Century heresy is equally Satanic, you'd better do as the venerable Quantum Mechanic suggests: 'Stop Using Computers'.
Don't open yours up to look at what it says on the components therein if you value your continued existence on Ruptured Forums: certainly after Ruptured Retards went tits up, thus you're reduced to parasitically clinging onto such for dear life via your computers that only serve to emphasise your hypocrisy.
Judeo-christian ? Get outta here, man. Every time the christians attained power somewhere, the Jews were persecuted. Talking about judeo-christian values simply whitewashes the fact christians are intolerant arseholes with a superiority complex.
Christianity in general has been with a good and bad influence on the world. It gave us fine art, gorgeous music and buildings and charity but it also gave us the Crusades, the Inquisition, the Reformation, Jesus camps and purity culture.
If you want to be religious, fine. But fo be mindful of people who aren't religious or the same denomination as you. They have rights too.

Nazi Germany, Soviet Union, Jim Crow, Opus Dei.

Didn't we (the US) revolt against a country where the King is the Leader of the Church of England? We didn't do that because of the overwhelming positive influences in England...
Instead, we turned around and made a country based on all sorts of philosophies EXCEPT Judeo-Christain values... With specific details such as no religious test for public office, the Establishment Clause, stuff like that.
Historically, I think it does not bode well for the history of Christain countries.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
