Anyways, I fail to see how a politicians faith is an issue. Unless they're a Scientologist. I would loudly oppose any scientologist being elected.

The point is. Religion should not be a political issue. Cause most if not all so called "Christian Conservatives", quickly turn there back on Christian Ideals as soon as they get in office and start wars and break oaths to uphold the Constitution...
very true.

the only time I care about christmas decorations if when another religion wants their pieces displayed and can't. if you request a x-mas tree and someone puts one up, then I should be able to request a non-christan symbol and get one too.

I don't think we should have the 10 commandments in front or in courthouses. that's over stepping a bit.

To appeal to a larger body of voters. Why wouldn't they try to appeal to as large a constituency as possible?

I am one of those voters... if you look in government I challenge anyone on the forum to find any position, higher than county dog catcher, all the way up to the president, who doesn't have some religious affiliation.

Your point is? There are more than a few non-religious people in Congress currently. I wish you knew half the shit you where talking about when you talk about shit.
