Damn, we gave them freedom and now they are going to tell me they want to take a step backwards. What in the hell are these people about anyway. Islam rule would be a step back to some of the same oppression of the past. Maybe that old saying is right, can't teach an old dog new tricks. If I were them I would hate to be seen by the free world as backward.

Yet there are people right here on FR who'd love to see our country turned into a fundamentalist Christian nation.

Would that also be a mistake?

America has always been a fundamentalist Christian nation BUT we have a constitution to protect against any one religion being made a power of the governement, and allowing all religions to practice in peace.

Christians also have no rules that require killing off the opposition, and our constitution also protects those of other religions so they are not whacked because they believe differently than a state sponsored religion, none of this is true of sharia law, which condones the killing of christians and other religious groups, jews for instance, and the enslavement of women, just to name a few of it's more endearing qualities.

We have no state sponsored religion and your supposition that Christians want to somenow overthrow the US government and turn us into a "Christian" government without the protection of the law we are now afforded is just BS.
