Many Support Making Christianity a State Religion

In a new poll, 34% of U.S. adults said they favored making Christianity the official state religion in their state, though only 11% said they thought the U.S. Constitution allowed states to do so. Republicans were more likely to support a state religion, with 55% saying they favored a state amendment, and 46% saying they favored an amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

In perceptions of the separation of church and state, more people say they aren't mixed enough (37%) than too mixed (29%).

Of course, to me, this is pretty terrifying. Let's think about the other countries with religious governments: Saudi Arabia, Iran, several struggling countries in Africa. Do we really want to count ourselves amongst that number? Let's hope the good ol' U.S. Constitution remains strong in the face of this theocracy.
