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."

I couldn't agree more and that was exactly my point. My barometer, as it were, is not measured by religious affilliaton or lack thereof. It's measured by what I observe.

You seem to be confusing morality with spirituality.

I am not a Jew - but I follow the Ten Commandments - have them posted above my computer.
