I can see that you are spinning this with all your might but you fail to be convincing in your attempt to show these are not religiously motivated points.

Actually, Sopater quoted an article that concluded with "What kinds of public policies do we evangelical Christians want to see take place in America today?" (followed by a long list of demands).

These demands are indeed religiously motivated--by evangelical Christians. Evangelical Christians are a small percentage of the population of the US, but they would love to take over and establish a theocracy. Then they could get all of their demands enacted as law, and everyone would have to follow their particular beliefs.


One man's theology is another man's belly laugh.

Evangelical Christians Atheists are a small percentage of the population of the US, but they would love to take over and establish a theocracy oligarchy. Then they could get all of their demands enacted as law, and everyone would have to follow their particular beliefs.

There, fixed it.

These "demands" as you call them were the boundaries that our founding fathers and even our fathers or grandfathers grew up with. These are the principles that made this country great. These are not policies limited to radical theocrats. You, much like Rosie O'donnell, are confusing Evangelical Christians with radical Islamists.
