I don't know. I'd gamble that in the late 19th century their were plenty of good Christian politicians and church types in the States that wanted things to go back to how they were in, say, 1859. Much like these people are saying today's society should go back to 1959.

It's human nature to complain. Throughout history there must have been some group or other saying "we've lost our way, God will be angry, bla bla bla". No matter how "godly" or "moral" a society gets, they'll be someone saying that's not godly enough. I'm sure even the cavemen had some 25 year-old geezers saying "when I was a kid, things were different, we respected the Great Fire."
