re: #197 Lord Baron Viscount Duke Earl Count Planckton

There are some faiths that are kind of liberal in and of themselves— like the Quakers. The most famous Quaker we ever had in office was Richard Nixon. Yeah.

Anyway, I think there’s two aspects— it’s not just not wanting a conservative of a particular religion in office, but a fanatic, be they ever so liberal. If their viewpoint of the world is really entirely based around their religion, even if their current viewpoint is one I’m sympathetic with it’s too iffy to go along with. Luckily, most people ascribing their beliefs to their religion are really just following things that are common with pretty much all of humanity, and wrongly thinking that these are religiously inspired.
