Republican Candidates and Religion

Well the candidates were finally asked straight out how their religion would affect their presidency:

Paul - said that his religious beliefs affect how he treats people and the way he lives

Romney - said the president should carry in his heart what the authors of the Declaration of Independence wrote.

Gingrich - said that anyone who is president faces decisions so enormous that they should go to God and should seek guidance. Also that one of the reasons he is running is there has been a war on religion, particularly on Christianity in this country.

Santorum - said the Constitution is there to do one thing; protect God-given rights and that no other country in the world has "God-given" rights, not government-given rights.

Very frightening when three people with the potential to be the leader of the United States will use a mythological figure to guide their decisions.

TAGGED: RELIGION, SECULARISM, US POLITICS
