Should fundamentalist Christians split off and create there own party or are they the only people left in the?

Republican party now, making the point moot?Should fundamentalist Christians split off and create there own party or are they the only people left in the?
The GOP needs to get good people to run. 3rd parties don't win and we have to save this country from the libs.Should fundamentalist Christians split off and create there own party or are they the only people left in the?
Why would a small group of reactionaries break off and form a tiny splinter political group with few numbers and no influence when they can manipulate, intimidate, and control a major political party?





If the fundamentalists formed a separate party, it would be small and have no significant influence in politics.





As long as they can remain vocal and keep the party leaders convinced that they represent, if not the religions beliefs of the Republican party members, at least the principles of the membership, they can exercise disproportionate control over a major party. While a few religious radicals control the party's agenda, the rest of the party is held hostage. What's more, in their current position of influence, they can subtly change the moral and private personal beliefs of non-fundamentalist party members.





There are many Republicans who are neither religious fundamentalists, nor even Christians. They have clearly defined views on government, individual liberty, and economics, but do not hold with the Religious right's agenda. They are being used as paws in a game for control of our country's future.





If you had that kind of power, would you give it up so you could have your separate identity and no power?








To answer your question, yes, they should. Then we can all recongize how small and unimportant they really are.
