Do you think it's right to mix religion and politics?

[DownLookingUp]

If people have moral standards based upon religion, does that mean that their political stance must be religiously justified? And is it right (considering the differing views that we all have have about religion) to mix the two? Why or why not?

[doza1621]

Never!!!!! Because it is simply wrong.

"God wills it"

[dpymp]

Absolutely not. We don't need religion to tell us killing is bad. Or that stealing is bad. We know it is already. Its called human rights.

[DrSt4thYAaccountt]

How else are you going to do it?

[dovebird]

Religion should never be mixed with anything :P

[DrSchmoo]

NO!!!

[doumbek]

Yes, since religion is the politics of God.

[DrJoke]

religion has no place in politics.....that being said, every individual has the right to use their religious fundamental beliefs to help them make a decision of whom to vote for...for themselves and nobody else.

I think it is impossible to separate a person from his or her religious and/or political point of view.And I think this applies equally to both Christians and atheists (and others).The US Constitution has sufficient checks and balances to keep this from becoming a theocracy. And an athiocracy. What a country!!
