Hey, if you want to disobey Christ, that's your baby.

I would agree with you that it would be an abuse of power to stop them because of their beliefs.

That is a clear abuse of power. And, if he did that, he deserves to be reprimanded or even let go.

However, if he stopped them for probable cause, I have no objection to him mentioning his faith to them.

Now, the letter did cross the line.

This is a shameless red herring. We're not discussing a case of an officer "mentioning his faith" in passing to a couple he stopped for probable cause.
