Do other countries that are predominantly a different religion have as many religious idioms as we do? Eg, "rob Peter to pay Paul," or "heavy cross to bear," or "an eye for an eye," etc. They're nearly countless and reflect a bygone time when familiarity with the contexts of those words carried most of the meaning.
I'm sure they must, though my modest attempt at some googling (Googling?) didn't produce much.
