What patronizing crap. Oh let me see adhering to one's faith will never make on wholly democratic and I see it's just been a flop to the country that's been the only impediment to evil's 1000 year reign. Give me a break.
btw-I'm a new freeper so this is a reply to the article itself (I'll figure it out after I calm down)
Sadly, you make the mistake most Americans make in that you think like an American. This article was written for Europeans who have a different relationship between religion and state - even in a secular EU. Americans need to be able to think like Americans at home and understand how non-Americans think in their homes.
