For instance, up until not too very long ago, in many states and locales, it was illegal to sign a check, or a contract, or a credit card receipt, on Sunday. Why? The signing of the name was considered to be swearing, as in swearing an oath, or swearing to tell the truth... or in this case swearing that you'd be financially responsible for the debt. The Christian Dominionist got that into law, long ago. No swearing on Sunday, don't ya know?
For instance, in the county where I live, and in most of the counties locally, one cannot buy drinkable alcohol, past midnight on Saturday, except for the consumption within a bar or restaurant. You cannot buy alcohol, in fact, until noon, or some cases 2pm on Sunday. Why? Christian Dominionists at it again. Wanna make a day of fishin' out in the ocean Sunday? Better have the beer from before midnight, ITS THE LAW!
That is the infusion of belief into the legal system, imposing a moral code upon all of society. The so-called Blue Laws are still in effect, and enforced... strictly for religious reasons. And the Blue Laws are only part of the total issue.
I don't need somebody who agrees with that sort of thing in the White House. And Cruz, is dad, and his congregation all believe in that, and more.
