While I cannot tell you to not practice your religion (even publicly), I can certainly tell you that you can’t have the government forum from which to enact the tenants of your religion. Most of the core of our founding fathers were non-religious, even if they considered themselves to be “Christian.”

Very few understand what Christianity actually is… just look at the fragmentation within the religion!! How many branches does it have, anyway?? Dozens? Hundreds? I rest my case!

…As for the other candidates, I think that Romney’s business suit is his best suit but is a moderate flip flopper. I think Newt is an eccentric genius whose chauvinism will be his undoing. Ron Paul is solid in his beliefs, which is in itself admirable, but he believes way too much in social laissez faire, though I stand firmly with him against wasteful military actions abroad.

…I think most of the comments here reflect nonconservatives, who wouldn’t be caught dead at a tea party, probably don’t attend church, and probably think the economy is the biggest issue. If even the last one is true of you, let me ask this question: How and why was there a housing bubble and a financial crisis in the first place? …If you answer anything other than people were greedy and lacked moral values and responsibility, then you will get what you deserve–more leaders acting without integrity. It is true that there is a split in the republican party, and indeed, our country. But are you on the right side of that split?
