If your argument is that the church winning would strengthen it, and it would use that strength to try to limit freedom, and the extra strength would make it effective in doing so, I just don't see it. I didn't have in mind the Church. I had in mind the religious right. I have no doubt such a win would strengthen and embolden it. You seriously think there is any chance of theocracy in the short run An actual theocracy, no, of course not. Nor in the long run. Mostly just a return to little kids saying organized prayers in school. I view that in much the same way as you see employers with moral objections having to fund contraception--government imposition of an assault on deeply-held values.
