Re: good question -- maybe

Well, then, let me rephrase: suppose that the US was a completely secular nation: religious belief was a matter of personal conscience; the religious beliefs, or lack of them, of our politicians were completely irrelevant in the elections; no state institution made reference to any deity or any religious mythological history, and so forth. What problems do you see in that?
I think that would be the ideal situation. I don't know if you were serious, rhetorical, sarcastic, or other. Please advise.

Re: good question -- maybe
Hello crashfrog,
Lets just throw that question out loud and clear (again) and see if anyone has an answer.
I ask, does anyone have an answer for Chiroptera's question in this message Message 22
Would that completely secularist government be bad? If the answer is that it would be good, I think that I and others such as crashfrog, Chiroptera and others agree. If the answer is that it would be bad, please tell us why it would be bad.
