If a country was 80% Christian and voted that Christian laws should be passed, would atheists accept the laws as democratic? If the majority of a society is Christian and wants Christian laws shouldn't those laws be respected?

I don't support democracy, democracies are tyrannies of the majority. I support a constitutional republic form of government. That is one where the rule of law is the governing body, and protection for the rights of everyone is enforced.
