No thanks, I don't want to be ruled by christian law, islamic law, satanic law, or have any other forced religion upon me.Rep. Katherine Harris (R-Fla.) said this week that God did not intend for the United States to be a "nation of secular laws" and that the separation of church and state is a "lie we have been told" to keep religious people out of politics.
"If you're not electing Christians, then in essence you are going to legislate sin," Harris told interviewers from the Florida Baptist Witness, the weekly journal of the Florida Baptist State Convention. She cited abortion and same-sex marriage as examples of that sin.
My belief is the framers of the constitution wanted a government that was limited in duties and powers in order to maximize personal freedoms. Have the government do the bare essentials and it won't become oppressive. Part of this level of freedom includes being able to follow whatever religion you want. When you start having the government taking tax dollars to fund religious services or monuments, the government is stepping outside its minimalist role and violating the establishment clause of the 1st amendment. To suggest that the framers would be comfortable with religion creeping into government just seems totally incongruent with all the provisions for liberty and small government as well as protection for the minority in the rest of the constitution. The ultimate in freedom is to say you are free to exercise whatever religion you like but you shall not force your religion upon others via the government.
Of course if you're a christian and believe you have a religious duty to bring your religion to do others I could see someone have a conflict about doing the right thing and supporting the seperation of church and state. Sort of like how the anti's might twist the 2nd amendment to fit their beliefs so they can do what they think is better.
