And if
you claim that you never stated that it did, then you admit that it
imples multi-culturalism if it allows for multi-religions.

It does allow for multiple religions.  That doesn't mean that it
allows for *all* religions.  

Name one that is excluded.

Wahhabi Islam, which wants to overthrow the Constitution, and replace
it with sharia law.

In Saudi Arabia. You can't say a Wahhabi Muslim in the US is an
illegal citizen.

Since I never did say that, I don't know why you're telling me such a
stupid thing.

Constitutional law applies to people Rand, so when you speak
nebulously (and you often do!) about religion and the Constitution I
brought it right down to the level of the Constitutuion, a person.

There is no such thing as an illegal person. There are only illegal
acts.

Sorry your beliefs got in the way of facts again.


And it doesn't mean that it allows for
religions that refuse to separate religion from state, and insist on
their own laws, that are unconstitutional.

What religion refuses to separate religion from state?

Islam (probably among others, but that's the most popular one).

Again, in Saudi Arabia.

Everywhere they are in power.  

Turkey?

Wahhabists are not in power in Turkey.

They want to do it wherever they live, and would do it here if we let them.

We? Who is we?

We, the people of the United States.

And what exactly are we letting them do?

We aren't letting them do anything. Because we have a Constitution
that prevents it.

 Many are demanding to do it in Europe.  The only law to them is Allah's law.

And many Muslim countries are more secular as well. Get a grip.

I suppose you don't support the fact that Israel is a Jewish state?

Israel can do whatever it wants in Israel. Israel doesn't have the
goal of making Judaism the only religion, world wide.
