Under this president, we have a government that has grown too big, too costly and now even more overbearing by forcing religious entities to abandon their beliefs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Government needs to stay out of the religion business altogether.
The greatest bulwark against an overreaching government, as tyrants know, is a religious population. That is because religious people form communities of interest adverse to government control of their lives; religious communities rely on their families and each other rather than an overarching government utilizing force.
I think religion played a huge part in Bush's re-election.
A union of government and religion tends to destroy government and degrade religion.
The U.S. is off the spectrum in religious commitment.
To speak against religion (the Christian) is breaking down the bond of good government.
I think that what went wrong with religion is the same thing that went wrong with politics. Is that it became too money based and too controlling. It's just a weakness that we human beings have for control - we want one thing and then we want more and then we want more.
The government must pursue a course of complete neutrality toward religion.
Religion flourishes in greater purity, without than with the aid of Government.
Too many religious organizations are in the business of enforcing beliefs.
