I think that living under Shar'ia law in a Wahabi state might have something to do with it too. Followers of this branch of Sunni Islam believe that the Koran lays down exactly how a Muslim should live in every aspect of life. The state is religion and the religion is state. The only law is the law laid down by Mohammed, therefore the American style separation of Church and State is impossible.

Unless you are expecting the States to start following Shar'ia law any time soon I don't think you need to worry about it coming to this.
