and that's all well and good. There's also a tradition of faith. Now, the leaders of our party, whether you agree with them or not, have decided that it behooves us to reach out to people of faith who agree with us on policy. That is not giving up any core belief (unless your core belief is atheism) but being able to speak to them in a way that shows that our polcies match their belief system. That's why we have a connection to Wallis. Noone is suggesting that we climb in bed with Falwell or any of those types. Saying that we should just try and steer away from religion entirely is politicaly naive.
