Not even. Our nation is even bordering an oligarchy, if we keep going in the direction that we are now.

It's bull how religion has a major influence on the government.

I'm not talking about the whole nation, just a few states that think they are an exception to the law of seperation of state and church.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Oh...well I still agree with you :P

There is no law separating church and state, that was just an ideal of Thomas Jefferson's, that he mentioned in a letter to a friend. This nation was made so that the majority would rule over the minority. If the majority are of the same religious bent, then the minority have no choice but to suffer, or rise up.

How does religion have anything to do with our government?

America is a republic we vote in elected officials, if it was a democracy the people would be making the laws not our elected officials chosen to represent us.
