I believe if you Google 'Christian Nation', you'll find a bunch of people who want a theocracy. Oh, they won't actually call it that, but that is what they want in spirit: a nation that draws source and scripture for governing from the Bible.

Do I believe most Christians, or even a lot of Christians, want a theocracy? No. That just shows that there is a fringe on both sides that needs to be kept in check.

Oh, a timely story. Religious folk imposing their morality in the bedroom:

Mississippi outlaws sex toys (Dan Abrams)

There is a landmark legal battle of constitutional proportions being fought down in Mississippi. It involves fundamental rights protected by the First and Fourteenth Amendments, not to mention the rights of certain small business owners to satisfy their customers. This week, another court refused to recognize Mississippians’ right to find companionship for 29.99 and so a law outlawing the sale of sex toys will stand.
