The post to my Facebook timeline yesterday incited 2 bogies and 2 friendlies, to which I responded:

The capitol of America's real deep state: Talibama
The more I ponder Talibama's new abortion law, and the new slightly less Sharia abortion laws in other mostly southern states, the more I wonder if that new Confederacy should not adopt Islam as its official religion?
I wonder what the Sharia karma is for people who voted for Donald Trump, whose U.S. Supreme Court and federal appellate and district court appointees are the reason for the new Sharia abortion laws?
Trump has shaped Supreme Court – and many other federal appeals ...

In a Facebook discussion yesterday, launched by someone else, a fellow said the new abortion laws are not the result of religious influence.
I wondered if that person had a brain? Or even a soul?
I told a friend yesterday, who had voted for Trump because he would break up "the deep state," that what Trump did was reveal the real deep state in America.

Your observation that Extremism, in this case you cite religious extremism (as it is too often practiced by lazy and self-righteous Non-Thinkers) IS 'dead on'. As in the DEAD Separation of Church and State you mentioned too. In Spirit if not in Fact. Yet. I will however, decline sending a 'than-you note' to Mr. T. At least it APPEARS he may not be an ABSOLUTE EXTREMIST after all. Just, well, extreme.
As for medical doctors performing like trained-monkeys under the DECREES of State Medical Boards, I saw this coming decades ago when Florida first decided to deal with its Pill Mills by pursuing suspicious doctors who had THE AUDACITY to prescribe according to their medical judgement and not according to THE STATE'S Standard of Care. Today we see the result with the impossibility of obtaining legitimate AND APPROPRIATE pain relief across the U.S.A. An example of how our Federal government deals with this 'crisis' of Junkiedom on our streets, is its across-the-boards PROHIBITION of the prescription of ALL outpatient prescriptions by its Providers. Private M.D.s are running scared and 'Just Say No" citing REAL threats of litigation and/or prosecution. Meanwhile the DEA refuses to deal with scientific data to even modify it's Classification of Schedule 1 drugs. And on the street, the death rate of overdosing junkies keeps rising and, least important as far as our lofty Providers, who are ruled by, and Regulators who dictate such DECREES, are the suffering patients who would benefit by such forbidden availability. That is not to say the management of the prescription of drugs is a simple matter. SO, neither is its regulation by the rulers here in Tallahassee. Something stinks in the State of Our States. As a confirmed paranoid realist, I still say, Follow the Money. While people are suffering and junkies are dying, and absurd Laws and Regulations are being enacted SUPPOSEDLY to serve the People, SOMEBODY (I dare not mention that they prefer to remain in the shadow of 'inadequate'investigation or prosecution.)is STILL getting rich from black market drug distribution and sales. Ever wonder who? Maybe I have already mentioned them somewhere.
You make good points, Doc. The practice of medicine indeed often is precarious nowadays. Unfortunately, as you know, not all physicians are scrupulous, or wise, with prescribing pain killers. Furthermore, when I lived in Key West, I got the impression that, between the booze drug and the other legal and street drugs, maybe 95 percent of the teenage upward population there was high on something. And, since I viewed Key West as a proxy for America, there you go.
A retired psychiatrist in Key West and I went around about his contention that Xanax was not addictive, and people who used it and quit cold turkey could not experience difficult withdrawal symptoms. I only took Xanax once, many years ago. I took a half a regular dose, because I had been told it was powerful. I was knocked for a loop into the next day. Perhaps that was peculiar to me, but I knew for a fact, if I kept taking it, I would become addicted to it.
