Now to my legitimate topic.
It isn't rediculous. The Church was to be seperated from the State. It was, for a while, but is back to being fused. That, my friends, is a bad thing.
It might not be one by definition, but it is damn near close. The Catholic Church has too much influence, as do many religions (just the Catholic one takes the heaviest stand).
Svosen - thanks. That is another way of looking at it. However, I do know what theocracy means.
I don't however, mean that the freaking pope runs the country through the president by any means.
I think that we will remain republican (president) until:
a) They **** up big time.
b) Democrats wake up and realize they can't win with a pro-choice, gay marriage stand.
Just for the record, my father is a lawyer and is on a panel with federal judges that talk about issues on weekly basis. They came to the conclusion it was a theocracy (not the LITERAL definition) but pretty ****ing close. Religon seems to be playing a BIG ass role. That, like voice said, is a bad thing.

It seems to me you are one of those who would never vote Republican. Let's not forget that our country is a Republic and not a Democracy.
Just because Bush got elected does not mean our country is coming down to Theocracy. You are being completely ignorant with your thought. If people vote because of there religious/moral beliefs that does not make our country a theocracy. So what you are indirectly saying or atleast the way i'm seeing it is that people should never vote for there religious beliefs.
If i'm wrong please correct!
