We don't allow racists (a minority) dictate the policies of the country, why should we allow religious fundies to do the same?
Because unlike the racists (who are always arguing from a nonsense POV because of the fact that humanity consists of but one race; homo-sapien), the so called mis-named "religious fundies" are right ... and you are wrong ? :)
How about we leave all the "us and them" out of the discussion, hmmm ?
