Philosophically, we can thank Kant for this notion that reason and faith can be divided.

Faith becomes a mere subjective feeling while reason is objective and therefore true.

This gives politicans the justification to say they believe something but then go ahead and vote for the opposite view.

They defend it by saying, "well I believe that but that is only my opinion, and I can't impose my opinion on someone else"

Yes, he can't impose his opinion on anybody else, but he can impose that I pay abortions with my money. And if I don't want to?. Do I have the freedom to keep that money for that part of my body that I let develop and is now outside my body, and is called "son"?. I could save that money for him. Unbelievable! part of my body outside my body.
