MAGATs are all paranoid about an Islamic takeover of the US. That is only a possibility if there is no separation of church and state. If there is REAL separation, LIKE CHINA, religion is a moot point. The Chinese government basically ignores religion, unless, like the Uigurs, they start trying to make their own laws. 6 years ago, I met a moron "Missionary" that told a table full of people at a restaurant that he was about to leave on a trip to "smuggle Bibles into China" through Thailand.  I told him that there were Christian churches in China, and he could just send the books to one of them, no problem. I also told him that if he got caught, the Chinese were unlikely to believe he was just smuggling books. He insisted the Chinese  persecuted Christians. I told him the Chinese government pretty well ignores religion. He disagreed vehemently.

He has not been seen since.

I also have to point out that the religious persecution the pilgrims and other religious refugee settlers were fleeing was NOT from Islam.
