White Southern Christian conservatives are suddenly concerned about separation of church and state
As in their recent alarm about Sharia law being accommodated or sponsored in any way by government.

Well, those of us who have opposed the mixing of church and state for many years welcome their belated concern, and hope that their concern will apply to not only Sharia law, but state sponsored Christianity and state sponsorship of other faiths.

2. They're not concerned about Church/State separation. They're concerned about Mosque/State separation
As long as it's their own sky fairy, entanglement with the State is perfectly acceptable.

Most of these Christians, however...

everything person/thing just like them.

5. I know they have blinders on, Secularism is the best way, for all countries...
They just don't want an Islamic state, a Christian state would be just fine. Pure hypocrisy, pure and simple.
