I think I like big issues, but I don't believe in God or religion.

My political beliefs are my moral, quasi-religious framework.

I think I'm fascinated by the power of religion in our culture. Like a lot of secular, liberal people, I ignored it for a long time. Lately, of course, just from a political perspective, it's impossible to ignore.

I still want to hold on to my beliefs, and as long as I have that, I won't stray too far from politics.

I treat politics kind of like my religion. It's something I believe in, but I don't want to have to make a living at it, because if you make a living at it, you somehow become dishonest.

I'm actually, for the most part, a complete agnostic politically.

I think that we are at a point in our country where we're trying to decide what role should religion play in the political arena.
