There is no such thing. The U.S. was never based on any belief, you can't have a "religous" democracy.

Perhaps I should have worded my question better, I'll blame it on last nights rum!

"What do you think the USA would be like if Islam was the main religion?"

Invasion USA 2006!

The invasion of the Arabs. On February 18th, several divisions of Arab troops were reported to have landed near Atlantic City. Casino-goers were reportedly lynched by the Muslims. It is reported that the troops are now heading for the  city of New York.

I think we would be a whole lot more violent. 
But since our Pledge of Allegiance goes "...one nation, under GOD, indivisible with liberty and justice for all"

So this nation was founded with God in mind, not Ala.  But other than more violent I don't know what we would be like.

Giant Squid, Allah means God in Arabic...

If you read the bible and the Quran they are one and the same (sort of, abit messed up and hard to explain due to the history of the region).
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

I don't know, I thought the Muslims believed that Jesus was a prophet of Allah, and that Allah and God aren't the same God that I/Christians believe in.  Did that make sense.

Alright, 'Allah' is just the Arabic word FOR God, so im preety sure that your Pledge of Allegiance may still cover the Islamic religion.
As far was what America would be like if Islam was the main religion i believe that there would not be much of a change. Might see a country more like Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates, and im preety damn certain that the USA wouldnt keep invading the Middle East - like its a sport or something. So perhaps the world might even be a bit more peaceful.

the bible and the koran are no where near the same.  they are the holy books of each religion. Thought the koran does say that Juese was the profit of light and peace, and the bible new test and old are in fact the word of god/allah. Anyone else see the problem with that. If the koran is right about jesus as a profit but the bible is the word of God then...What is a muslim to believe? bible has jesus the son of god...hmmmmm I guess the writters of the koran didnot think it through...sorta like this game and the bugs?

Hahaha, I like how you put that.  I think we should start "sport hunting" Mexico next, that'll teach them to stay out of our country until they learn english.

^ I'd love to hear what you think.

Before anybody even thinks about it, I'm NOT starting this as an america-bashing thread, merely to see some ideas on how different it would be.

Sorry for the random comment:

Would it be called 'Iramica'? Or 'Americastan'?

I think that the bible's reference to Jesus as the son of God is a metaphor. And if Chuck Norris controlled America, he had better not roundhouse kick everyone who would flame him for the Iraqi invasion.
