Indeed they do, but lack of "God's teachings" is not exactly the reason for bad morals

There is no correlation with lack of faith or no religion in government to these social problems
Note: Ireland probably has a higher rate of believers than the US, and still doesn't have as much social issues. Again, there is no correlation between religion and social issues. People claim that your country needs God's teachings, but ignoring the evidence is just going to make it harder to find a solution.
