Well said as usual Charlie... :-) In a Democracy the Nation keeps apart religious matters from State matters (such as Education, Justice, etc. ) . In Nations where the State are ruled by religious norms of a given religion (ex: modern Afghanistan and Iran etc.) are no longer considered to be in a Democracy but in a Theocracy system of government as you well know . Let's wish that our List keeps on his "democratic" state of mind .... :-). Cheers , "Charles T.
