religion should most definitely NOT rule government. Yikes. I'm a hard core secularist and religion mandating legislation really scares me. Dunno where you got the idea i was logically saying that from my email.

BUT....in the United States (i cannot speak for Europe), i believe the figure is close to 90% of people who believe in a God. What i was simply pointing out is that the fact that religious beliefs still play a role in legislative decisions, especially on ethical questions (see W.), is really not that surprising, given the 90% figure.

  Says who? - About the majority believing in a deity. From what I
  understand only a slim  minority in Europe now have that belief.

  Anyhow by your logic then religion should rule government.
