So much so that to do otherwise would require Constitutional Amendments or Civil War.
Going one step farther. Imposing Fundamental Christian values upon America would only subvert that which made America great. Already god's chosen president is driving science and technology advances from this country. You want that - or do you want what 'good' (non-fundamentalists) want? Advancement of mankind. They are mutually exclusive. Either we promote extremist fundy values or we advance mankind. Which do you want?
So that there is no confusion, let's get one point straight. Fundy religious extremist values promote intolerance. No way around that. Given the definition, are you a fundy Christian extremist - or do you represent a different viewpoint? Fundamentalist Christians who would promote their religious values on America are the definition of intolerance. Where is your standing based upon that definition?
