And yet they didn’t found a theocracy. The only morality legislated into the constitution was to value limited government. Nor did they encourage states to legislate morality, though they gave them the option. While you suppose that was oversight I believe it was becuase they knew that even more dangerous that immorality would be a powerful government.

If I may, I'd say we have a winner here. Our system of government was meant for people to exercise free will as far as they can as long as they do not infringe on others. Although the States themselves are not encouraged to enact things on moral issues, each State does have the ability to tailor themselves, via their people, to what flavor they like as long as it passes Constitutional muster.
