chrisCA Religion has no place in running a country especially when there are many religions and many gods.Interesting point. The United States of America was the FIRST nation in history to reject being a theocracy. It was founded by Christians and based a lot of Christian ideals, but the country's laws come from the Constitution, not the Bible or the Koran.
When John F. Kennedy ran for president, his being a Catholic became an issue. People said he would take orders from the Vatican. Pretty much the limited time he had in office, he didn't govern like a theocrat.
Probably the ONLY theocrat president in the history of this country was Barak Saddam Hussein Obama.
Each of the "many" religions teaches that theirs is the ONLY God. Most of them are peaceful. Christians won't fire you if you are Jew, Muslim, or Hindu, or even agnostic. In fact, firing on the basis of religion is illegal in America. (First Amendment, written by those Christian founding fathers.)
The Koran says death to all non Muslims. Probably that's the only extremist religion in the bunch.
