So if we elect those that profess Christianity, they will legislate what exactly?

If you inject Christianity into politics, you taint Christianity. The best way to ensure the restoration of Christianity as the basis for this country's policies is though straight conversion of the people, not through taking over the government.

Do we want the election of those such as Pat Robertson, Jimmy Swaggart or Benny Hinn? Would that be going in the right direction?

That's the most sensible thing I've read regarding religion and government on this forum. Well stated, ottom.

I think what they won't legislate is the point of her statement, and she is right about that.
