Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, adherents of Shinto, agnostics, and atheists (militant and otherwise) each represent a more functional worldview than the terrifyingly stupid theocracy people like Pat and Newt and Hucklebee are proposing.

To the extent Christianity actually is losing any power in America, it's because people this are telling everyone they worship a god who hates everyone and lies about everything.

Nobody's going to worship that guy.
