Right, no evidence, but it appears to be more an opinion.

It does bring up an important point; that is that non religious people, or, perhaps people in non mainstream religions; are very concerned that people in power will use their faith to impose their will on others. The religious right, I believe, need to be mindful of a potential backlash in this respect.

My point is that if faith is used to make law, it will lead to disagreements as we have no way to agree on whose faith should be preeminent.

This not a right or left thing, or a faith issue. We have here many people on the right who are people of faith and conservative. There are people on the left who are people of faith and liberal. I see no basis for those two sides to come to agreement. So, if either side uses their faith alone to make law, there will be disagreements.

So what if there are disagreements? I disagree with a lot of laws and with a lot more judicially created "laws". I have chosen to move to and stay in the rural plains. Generally, I obey the laws. If I am charged with violations, I will fight the prosecution and, if convicted, pay the price. I do NOT have a right to a society in which no one disagrees with me. It does not much bother me when they do. Maybe I grew up in a tougher neighborhood than the nervous nellies who are forever getting their undies in a bunch over the fact that morality is occasionally enacted into law.

I hate abortion with a purple passion. I do NOT run around vandalizing abortion mills much less assaulting or killing the babykiller doctors. I hope to live long enough to see them jailed (preferably in the general jail population) and to see abortion abolished here. Maybe I will be disappointed. I do NOT have to lose sleep over how this will affect the income and lifestyles of the babybutchers or the "choices" of those carrying the offspring in their wombs to a death by slicing, dicing and hamburgerization. But, hey, that's just me and the kind of guy (a former fetus) that I am. Others may have different views.

Let's get the elitist tyrants in black robes out of the way and decide the abortion issue democratically, and the dehydration method of spousal homicide by judiciary as well, and lavender "marriage" and so many other social issues. It's time to party!
