It takes decades of dumbing down enough people before you get a critical mass of fundamentalists

You don't need a critical mass. Any religious distortion by fundamentalists of whatever stripe is already too much.

If you want a right of the state to influence religion, you are against a separation of state and church.

Please stop spouting obvious nonsense. By that 'logic', if I don't want prayer in schools I'm arguing against the separation of church and state because I'm in conflict with religious people who do want prayer in schools.

Which is clearly rubbish.
