Ironically, they don't seem to understand that the best place to practice your religion without fear is in a place where the government has no interest in religions whatever.

You want this nation to be more Christian?

What sect should dominate?

Do any of you bible thumping fundamentalists want my brand of christendom imposed on you?

I rather doubt that.
