    Israel’s got us beat by a lot, man. In the US we have grasps for religious power (some successful) but it doesn’t describe everyone in government

      Go to Utah. The Mormon church has a lot more influence on politics, than people want to admit?

        Ohh I’m very aware of SLC. I’m speaking of the country as a whole, though

          Have you been to SLC? Mostly not Mormon. Meanwhile places like Provo are 98% LDS

            I’ve never been to Utah period but I know that the LDS owns like 1/4 of SLC

        True but Israel’s been that way since its inception. An entire country made FOR religion

      It’s almost…Like when everyone in government is of the same religion, it’s similar to everyone in government being of no religion at all.
