Atheists & Agnostics

(27,361 posts)They also believe in religious rule. They appears to be not as radical as Sharia, but I believe it would morph into that without any stretch at all. These folks aren't immigrants or refugees, they are American born and bred, who believe our government should follow Christian law, and that's all that nasty made up stuff in the Bible.
I think religious conservatives in all faiths believe they should rule the world and 30% appears to be the magic number of believers who subscribe to that in any given secular country. So 30% of 1% of the American population (Muslims) believes their religion should be the law, compared to 30% of 70% (Christians) of our population, more than half who believe the Bible should be taken literally and interpreted as they say, and should be the law of the land.
So tell me, in America, who has the most chance of bringing total religious rule to America and which one would be worse? We're looking at states in America that are ruled by the Christian right, where women without means can't get access to health care, and kids are learning that Jesus wrote the Constitution.
