Yes, lets make it the moral Party instead of a political Party.

A conservative political Party is to stand for freedom, not attempting to regulate moral behavior.

That is a theocracy.

And sometimes a reverse-theocracy can take advantage of such a posture. OK, say Baal is behind the bathroom madness. Uncle Sam shouldn’t be able to boost Baal there, which is always a possibility if he can ban Baal there. The power to regulate in one direction becomes the power to regulate in the other direction.

Wrong! You have just defined the libertarian party. Standing for moral issues has always been the backbone of the GOP, beginning with its original anti-slavery platform.

We're talking about the last, yowling online diehards trundling and trolling in support of a man who genuinely believes he's a modern-day incarnation of Moses.

For them, "theocracy" isn't a bug; it's a feature.

EVERY issue is a moral issue, from taxes to national security to marriage, etc.

By your logic, if the left wanted to make it legal for everyone can walk around naked, you would just sit back and allow it.

We don’t need wusses like you who refuse to fight for basic human decency in the party.
