If Christian fundamentalists really had their way in this country, with no Constitution, no secular courts, and no organizations championing freedom of religion and separation of church and state to get in their way, these are just a few examples of the way things would be:
-Daily religious instruction, prayer and Bible study would be required in all schools.
-Church attendance would be mandatory.
-Only Christians would be allowed to serve in elected office or as judges.
-All laws and all science education would have to conform with the Bible and meet the approval of religious leaders.
-Artificial contraception would be illegal.
-Divorce would be illegal.
-Blasphemy would be illegal.
-Working on the Sabbath would be illegal (except for football players and NASCAR drivers).
-Abortion would be illegal and punishable by death.
-Known homosexuals and atheists would be imprisoned or killed. Homosexual activity would be illegal and punishable by death.
-Extramarital sex would be illegal and punishable by death.
Now tell us what the worst-case scenario would be if fundamentalist atheists had their way about everything, and then to tell us which world youd rather live in.
This is, of course, just a rhetorical challenge, to illustrate the foolishness of your position to anyone new here. A coherent and direct response from you is not (ever) expected, and your usual evasion is beyond tiring, so don't waste your time and ours.
