Topic: Separate Religion from the State
I get very annoyed by crack pot politicians who believe that political decisions should be motivated by religion, and there should be school prayer and creationism taught. The fact is, is that costly outcomes happen when idiots make decisions that aren't backed by evidence or experience. If that isn't the single reason why religious fanatics in the Republican Party shouldn't stfu, another is that imposing religion in public life is a violation of minority rights. While there's nothing wrong with celebrating christmas, it creates an uncomfortable social atmosphere when christian symbols and prayer are imposed on the public. With the status quo, minorities and the majority are able to live with relative comfort.
