Islamic or Christian? The US is not a deeply fantatical Christian country. Some people who live in the US are crazy like the Baptist Chuch who protests gay and war funerals. If that was the majority of the extremists who live in the US we would be no different than Iraq, Iran, or the Middle East. However, with issues like the teacher and teddy bear incident in Sudan and Muslims calling for her head?! I just find that any country where the majority of people who are deeply rooted in their faith questionable with regards to achieving a sense of democracy or a stablized country.
I really don't see it happening.

Interesting question, mate. The US puzzles me, as it was purposedly NOT created as a theocracy - but was formed with the idea of a separation of church and state. Yet fanatic Christians, who remind me much of the loyalists in my own land, continue to try and breach this wall and force their beliefs on others.
So perhaps the answer is no, if said fanatics will not tolerate dissent. However, luckily in US, I do not think them the majority. Maybe the answer is for them to secede - give them Texas for example - and they can happily live in the Dark Ages.

I agree with you-
Religion and politics have never mixed well.
But strangely enough - you can't have one without the other.
