[InformedIgnorance]

Any nation that has people in it who believe in some god claim their nation for god and claim god for their nation.

Hopefully they are moderates.... welcome to <insert your god of choice>'s country, obey our secular law system, want some other law system? Sure thing, if everyone agrees to it and has the choice at any time (even after judgement) to use the secular law system.

Aside from being ridiculously presumptuous and arrogant it is extremely ignorant of U.S. History, particularly that of its founding.
