Anyways. Since MoMo beat me to the punch (which is ironic becuse I had written up a little piece of the seperation of church and state yesterday but hadn’t posted it), I guess I’m the second person to put something up at that topic. But Kudos to MoMo for thinking in the same frame of mind.

Seperation of Church and State. I don’t think it exists anymore. Religion has no place in politics, and yet it is becoming the biggest part. I’ve head in the halls many things relating to this issue. People hate Romney because he’s Mormon and Obama because they think he’s Muslim. (For the record, he isn’t, but does it matter anyways?)And people support Huckabee many times on just the grounds that he is, in fact, a Christian. How are these justifications for presidential candidates?
I, for one, don’t care what religion a candidate is, and no one else should either. But they do. Religion is a personal thing, it has no place in politics, like I mentioned before. The religion of a candidate shouldn’t have an effect, since that’s not the important part of a campaign. The important part is the issues. How are they going to make the country better? How are they going to improve the economy? What are their thoughts on improving foreign policy? But no, what the American public wants to know is how spiritual the candidate is. How is knowing what the religion of your candidate going to improve the country?
