I did say "things" not "everything."
What I meant was that when people have a bit of extra change to throw into the donation box, I don't expect them to go through the philosophy to decide. If they want to give their money because God says that it's a nice thing to do, let them. If they want to believe in angels, go ahead. None of this affects anyone other than themselves in any sort of negative way.
On the otherhand, I think it's ridiculous to hate gays, and not allow homosexual unions for no more than the bible saying it's wrong. That people are against abortion because the bible says its wrong. That the president of the United States claims that god is on his side.
Any time one enters into philosophic or political discourse, one must have more defence than "cawz the gewd lawrd sayid sao."
