To: Chancellor Palpatine
I agree with much of it. But the point is, I am opposed to any government involvement in religion. I believe it is beyond the proper role of government in a free society.

Which doesn't mean I am opposed to religious people being in government or even to practicing it. People can pray wherever they want as far as I'm concerned, including government employees. I'm a Christian and proud to say so but I don't believe that people of any faith should use government (which, after all, is just force) to spread their idea of religion.
