Christian theocracy: How Newt Gingrich and the GOP would abolish courts and legislate morality. - Slate Magazine

Is the United States sliding toward theocracy? That’s what Republican presidential candidates have told us for more than a year. Radical Islam, they’ve argued, is on the verge of taking over our country through Sharia law. But this weekend, at an Iowa forum sparsely covered by the press, the candidates made clear that they don’t mind theocracy—in fact, they’d like to impose it—as long as it’s Christian. This is a disturbing article (unless you are a frothing at the mouth fundamentalist Christian lunatic). Read about their warped views on liberty, Christianity and freedom and realize that they want you to make them president.
