So, please don't accuse those of the many of us who won't vote for atheists as somehow being unconstitutional in demanding a religious test....that's just rubbish.

Here's the rub, though. You can 'hear' whatever you want about a candidates religious affiliation. When it comes down to brass tacks, it doesn't mean crap. What boggles my mind right now is that so many people here would and do blindly follow some fool just because they say they believe in God or Jesus. These are the same idiots (the politicians this time) that don't get one foot out of the church door without saying something immoral. You know people like that, so do I. Why do you base someone's life on a spoken sentence?

Note that Richard Nixon took his oath of office on, not one, but two Bibles.

Personally, I'm more interested on what a man does than what he professes to believe.

What about when more and more of them believe in Allah. Will you feel better then?

I agree with you....and religious professions are just one element I will use to determine who to vote for.

I agree there are a lot of Christians who get deluded (Barak Obama with Rick Warren comes to mind) when people claim religious belief. Real religion is shown in how one lives--so said St. James in the New Testament.

However, just because someone is known as a great guy--and is non-religious or atheist--doesn't make me want to vote for him--as morality is a lot more than if others think you are a "good person."
