At this point, the biggest problem I have with what I'm hearing here is paraphrased something like this:
"Why are you worried if the Government is Christian biased? They won't mess with anyone who isn't."
I'd like to see *one* single historical example of this having been the case anywhere, ever, regardless of which religious bias the government held. It is especially unlikely in the case of Christianity, since the central tenet is that you have to attempt to convert everyone else who isn't Christian (Evangelism), and that little gem has been used down through the ages to subvert entire races and separate them from their property. Take the gold and land, give 'em Jesus and smallpox. Not a very fair trade, IMHO.
