In practice, How is it different?

The GOP, specifically Santorum advocate for imposing the Christian moral law and code to all via the courts and government. How is this different (in practice) than the Sharia law that repulses them? There is no difference that I can see. Someone should point that out to them.

2. It isn't. But in their minds, they think Christianity

is superior to all other religions so they think it would work out fine. Of course, that's what the other religions think about their own religions as well. So it's no different.

3. It isn't but since it is their theocracy, then it is just swell.

In this case it is a little extra ironic because the laws would seem generally the same but perhaps radical Islam is less greed/fuck the next guy friendly, which they would find horribly offensive.

4. No difference, Fundamentalism, be it Islamic, Christian, flying-spaghetti monster, don't matter

Fundamentally nuts, fundamentally bankrupt, fundamentally unable to function within societal norms...
