"I don’t want government telling me what I can do and what I can’t do because I’m an American."
"I’m a conservative and that’s the way that goes."
David Cameron MP; Leader of the Conservative party. Prime Minster of the United Kingdom; of the government of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II; Head of the Church of England, Defender of the Faith:

Therefore we'll hear no more about you lot wanting a state religion. As you want to impose on your government, based on the US Constitution, which includes the Establishment Clause: a state religion, which the majority of US citizens don't want; what the likes of you want to tell what you want to impose on them, even though the very basis of their individual rights - the First Amendment - says is unconstitutional, yet you lot are all against 'Big Government' telling you what you can do and what you can't do...
...and can you now see the MC Escher-esque multi-dimensional paradox you've now created; to the extent that not being allowed to smoke is the least of your problems.
You want a 'Republic'. But you Conservatives want a state religion? Well make your fucking minds up, already! Either you must admit that the 'Great Experiment' was a complete failure and you must return to the UK, as we have a Protestant state Christian religion all ready to go (and for centuries since 1776 to this day), or you are forced to admit that secularism is superior, and religion has NO place in politics, schools - or anywhere else, but in church: and ONLY there.
Remember Hitler was a Christian, and hated Atheists...?
