57% of Republicans favor making Christianity the official religion of the U.S., but yeah…the christian right has no influence over the party. 
JSO, when Texas and Louisiana secede, please take Idaho with you.
http://www.spokesman.com/blogs/boise/20 ... e-refuses/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;An array of religious leaders, many of them from Nevada, are calling for Sen. Sheryl Nuxoll, R-Cottonwood, to apologize for her comments this week that Hinduism “is a false faith with false gods.” Nuxoll made the comments to the news media after she, along with two other senators, boycotted a Hindu prayer that opened a morning session of the Idaho Senate. Today, she stood by her remarks and refused to apologize, though she said she didn’t mean to say Hinduism was “false religion,” just that it’s based on “false gods.”
Nuxoll said. “I felt I had to abstain, because I’m not going to be praying to false gods. I’m a believer like Mother Teresa that everybody should be the best they can.” She said she encourages Rajan Zed, the Hindu cleric who gave the Idaho Senate invocation, to “be the best Hindu that he can for his faith and beliefs,” and said, “He can say a prayer anywhere he wants in the Capitol,” but said, “I’m in a floor session bound to follow the Constitution. … It is a Christian nation based on Christian principles. To start out our day, we usually say a Christian prayer. I would’ve been fine if we had also had a Christian prayer.” Nuxoll said she believes the Constitution is “based on Judeo-Christian principles.”
“Prayer isn’t a show,” she said. “Prayer is a relationship with God – that’s what prayer is. So how can I join in a prayer where it’s a false god?”
From North Idaho, with hair like that…who would've thunk it?
