48. Since I'm an afficianada of
the separation of Church and State, as mandated by the Constitution, I'd just as soon not know anything about anyone's religious beliefs or choices, and keep our country as secular as it is supposed to be.

The battle, as you see it, in the end, is one of laws, as exemplified by the Fitzgerald matter.

It's not religious philosophy which is at stake. It's our liberty, our freedom, our very existence, all of which is based on a document which was written to keep us free FROM religion, all the while allowing freedom OF religion.

It's all about the law.

Religion is a far second, and should play absolutely no part in government.
