[Arlo had asked]
Does this trouble you? Would it trouble you if the faith mentioned
was a non-Christian faith? Would it bother you more or less if the
President (any) professed to being an atheist instead of a Christian?
[P]
No, no and no.
[Arlo]
Let me see if I understand, if the same words were uttered about
Obama's faith being "Muslim" rather than "Christian", you would have
no problems with that at all? Why do you think so many people do?
[Arlo had asked]
In your condemnation of Islam for not having a separation of church
and state, do you also condemn Christians who do not recognize this
separation as well? Or is it "okay" when its Christians?
[P]
No, it is not OK regardless of one's faith, including atheists.
[Arlo]
I would agree that an Atheocracy would be as immoral as a Theocracy.
But if "atheism" is on the "church" side of the separation, along
with Christianity and Islam, what is on the state side?
If we should base our laws NOT on faith (where you include atheism),
but on "something else", what should that "something else" be? What is it now?
