I don't keep up much with politics, but I just doubt that this country will ever not have separation of church and state, even if some people might come along and try to push for it. What particularly "Christian" law do those guys want to impose?
They want to ban gay marriage. They want to ban abortions (even in the cases of rape, and some even in cases where the mother's life is in danger, and even when the fetus has no chance of survival) Some want to ban contraception. Many of them have attacked single-mothers, and a few of them have even said that it's the wife's job to stay at home. And they even want to make gay sex illegal, and I'm sure Rick Santorum would like to make pre-marital sex illegal. Santorum even thinks women shouldn't be working, that her place is in the home.
In fact Santorum has called Separation of Church and State a communist ideal.
The only one of those I agree with is making abortion illegal, since it's the killing of an innocent human life. Can't say I've heard any politician in the US say contraception, gay sex, and pre marital sex being illegal though. Are you sure that's what they meant?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
