How do you all feel about Recent Presidental politicians On the Right using Religion to mix with politics?

Question

I personally think its very discusting that they do the worst thing of all by usng this as some are present and or past ministers themselves. Shame on the GOP!
I personally feel that sometime this could lead to our own holy war here, if this kind of stuff continues.
I would love to hear back from the rest of the country if not world on this, and all your feelings towards mixing the depth of Religion so hard this time with Politics.

This needs to be addressed at the next Metting of the minds on TV for the candidates, and kicked in the mouth for good!
We all have our own personal feeling towards religion and to pick one over another and constintly talk about these beliefs is their opinions, and should not be favored over all others?

Answer 1

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

There's a reason the Constitution says that. The ones that wrote it had fought war for two years against an oppressive theocracy.

People within the government are certainly allowed to be religious, and religious people are likely to apply their tenets to their decision making. But as long as those decisions have no affect on religion or upon the citizenry from religion it is acceptable.

If one doesn't like the elected officials using religious tenets instead of logic for decision making, don't vote for them.

Answer 2

I am lost on everything about politics I just got to keep hopping that everything is going to be ok
