I figure religion is important to a lot of people. A large percentage of them seem to need to inject it into the public lives of the rest of us. We're more tolerant of them than they are of us.
They do form a significant political voice however and so they are set up to be used by smart politicians - just like many other special-interest groups. I distinguish between the actual constituents and the politicians who manipulate them wisely, IMO.
