I had to quote this. I just wish there were more people that understood this - science and religion exist for different purposes.
I personally have no problem against any spiritual views or religions but they have absolutely no place in government, or law.
For the record I am a 'weak atheist'/agnostic, I don't believe God doesn't exist, I simply lack any belief in the existance of any gods.
