95. Heh
I can't see why not, although I haven't explored the theory.
There is a problem, though, because "Republicanism" is typicaly associated with wealthy Christians and Jews, which means that it separates the spiritual world from the material one.
Communism doesn't. In Communism, you're supposed to believe in Communism, and nothing else, just like in a Theocracy.

So while Republicanism might be considered a religion, it isn't as clear cut as Communism. If you want, I'll explore the subject and report the findings, although I find most responses on this forum insulting. I thought that the root of the word "liberals" (which is "liberal") that this forums are supposed to be meant for stands for "liberty", which includes "freedom of thought" and "freedom of expression". It should be against your principles to flame me for an argumented assertion.
