re: #204 Obdicut

Right. So we have a secular state, and no religion should be privileged over any other. That means no laws should be passed that are prompted by anyone’s religion, because that’d be respecting an establishment of religion.

However, our laws are written by human beings, and their point of view, their entire way of thinking, will be influenced in part by their religion.

(And their education, and their life experiences, etc.)

There is, however, a difference between a legislator going to church on Sunday or Saturday, and that informing their values and they legislate, and a legislator receiving faxes from their pastor telling them what to do.
