(654 posts)he absolutely is clueless that a great many people like me don't even think about god or religion until some idiot knocks on our door or tries to indoctrinate your kids at school or at sports...
His worldview is dangerous, as he thinks he answers to a higher power and not you and I when is in office. We don't need that at any level of our government, all these religious fools looking for magical good old days...when there were none that were better than we have it now. As screwed up as we still are it's still better than any other period of our history...we live longer, we commit less murder by half compared to the 1970s, medical treatments over the last 40 years have made restoring eyesight to an eye damaged like mine a simple 10 minute procedure instead of a month in the hospital...and we are finally starting to recognize that all Americans should actually be equal under the law...one could argue that as we've become less religious we kill less people and recognize our fellow Americans more readily as worthy of equal treatment under the law. As religion recedes we are becoming a better nation than ever before.
