We’re FAR closer to a socialist state dictating that people can not have any shred of Christianity in public places and is to be kept behind closed doors on Sundays than we are to have proselytization patrols in the hallways of schools!

Same thing, really. Both theocracy and socialism are governments based on compelled morality. Both are flawed by mankind's imperfect understanding. Both would end up most likely run, not by believers, but by hypocrites who can mouth the right words, while not believing them in their hearts. Both are equally odious.

wholly agreed, but socialism is far far more likely and more imminently dangerous. In fact, it’s already firmly ensconced in liberal enclaves like NYC, (NO Christmas trees allowed in public schools) and SF, (NO ROTC near public schools), etc. etc. etc.

And alot of other places are ripe for a fall if they haven’t fallen already: Montgomery County Maryland...D.C.
Boston...
