Religious leaders have no place in our government, but government leaders can be religious. To stop that is an infringement on many rights.
Lookit you! Singlehandedly felling vast armies of strawmen! I am in awe.
Nobody that I know has ever talked about banning government leaders who are religious. In fact, I've heard a hell of a lot more people say they'd never vote for an atheist than have said they'd never vote for a Christian.

No, it absolutely isn't. But thanks for playing.

I am also offended by several labels that were placed on me in this thread. So the hypocrisy continues..... religious bigotry. You guys have no right to anger. You won't stop name calling with name calling.
Hmmm, I've scanned the thread and I can't find anyone calling you any names. I've seen people take issue with ridiculous things you say, and attacking your specious arguments, but nobody calling you names. Can you give examples?
