The weasel word being "successfully." They've been trying like hell, they just haven't succeeded.

Dorkman took the words out of my mouth, the important word is "successfully"

"successfully"
No, it's a very gradual process. They're just not finished yet.

Oh rich, a FreeCon, mini-nazi talking about someonme else attacking the first amendment! They would sell it out for a right-wing dictator anyday.PSPat Roberston demanding on his show that no one who is not a Christian or Jew be allowed to vote in US elections, Judge Moore placing the Ten Commandments after being voted down unanmously by his other Supreme Court members in Alabama, The Chrisitan Seperatist Movement plan trying to take over South Carolina and secede from the US. None of these have been successful, but each has been an attempt. Of course, you wouldn't know anything about these since you probably only get Rush, Mike, and GOPFOX in your parents basement.

"I have no examples of Christians successfully trying to turn the US into a theocracy."
And do you know why?
" I have hundreds of examples of liberalosers warping, twisting and shredding the First Amendment in their monomaniacal obsession with purging God from America"
That's why. Because of people who know that the First Amendment isn't to be abandoned, no matter how much you persecution-jockeys want to whine about how it hinders your ability to dominate national politics.

"I have no examples of Christians successfully trying to turn the US into a theocracy. "
Thats because those first amendment warping twisting shredding liberals prevented it. Except they didn't stop you from putting juicial activists on the supreme court.

The very presence of "successfully" in that sentence is a clear indication that the guy knows he's talking shite.

President Bush claiming he felt God approved of the U.S. going to war. Not a successful theocratic take over but it definitely sounds like an attempt.

You stupid fucks are always bitching about how people like me are "warping, twisting and shredding" the Constitution, yet you have no problem doing it yourselves. The difference here is, liberals like me protect the Constitution while you people only want to bypass it in order to get your way.
Fuck you.

I have no examples of Christians successfully trying to turn the US into a theocracy.
The Puritans tried. They succeeded for a while, in their part of the country.

John in Oz's article is definitely an interesting read. It's a good outsiders' perspective on what the U.S. looks like from a more sane country.

If you eliminate the word "successfully," all you need is to look at the many insane posts featured on this site to see how many lunatics want the U.S. to become a theocracy.
