You're absolutely right and hit the nail right on the head:

"but i think they (dems) respect the seperation of church and state more.. "

But you know the ACLU will handle that nonsense on christian issues. However, I haven't seen them go after islamic issues yet. For example, this:

http://www.usatoday.com/news/religion/2007-07-25-muslim-special-treatment-from-schools_N.htm

"Barry Lynn, of Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, says however that the law is murky on these expressions of faith. And the American Civil Liberties Union says overt religious symbols like crucifixes are not legal, but whether Muslim foot baths and prayer rugs fall into that category is not clear.

"That's a difficult one, and it's right on the edge," says Jeremy Gunn, director of the ACLU program on freedom of religion and belief in Washington, D.C."



I have the impression, as many others do, that it's now politically correct to attack any faith but Islam. When the ACLU says that a Muslim's special concessions for prayer is "murky" yet a "crucifix" is not legal in a public school, I'm scared.

I know that if Billy Graham himself were to become President, christianity will NOT be forced on anyone. If Obama were to become President, I'm not so sure that anyone would fight Islamic influence being pushed in the U.S. Apparently, not even the ACLU will fight islamic influence in the public sectors and that scares me.
