Narrowing "political process" down to the institutionalization of the
Christian religion within the governmental mechanism is a peculiarly
narrow definition of "the political process", but sure, that would
imply that Christianity has no involvement with the government. I was
using the phrase the way it's normally used. What does your use of the
word "mullahs" mean?

If I had thought so, I would have said so. Are you saying that
evangelicals have no control over regional senators and congress
persons?

Yeah we know all about that. But all you have to do to find fascist
"christians" is turn on the radio.

I think your case was that your opinions are correct. And yes it seems
quite closed.
