Christian Democrats in the United States
Conceptual Issues - Church and StatePublic government should enable good-spirited people to help each other become better people, regardless of our individual belief. Muddying the waters of law with religious preference quickly leads to a loss of the principles of common welfare that our American law is there to maintain. America was founded on the principles of religious freedom. That freedom defines her character as a nation. We do not sully her reputation by trying to enforce a narrow religious view on everyone. The United States should enable all people to find common ground together in spirit and actions, not in law or symbols.

Personally, I don't want to kill atheists or try to enforce my beliefs on them. I think atheism is the most rational point of view. (But how could you even explain irrational numbers with such a limited view -- the world clearly is more than rational.) I also believe that we can get ourselves out of most of our trouble if we have the guts to stand up and apply our rationality. President Bush "puts God to the test" with his short-sighted dependence on prayer.So we should welcome any atheist as well as good-hearted people of other religions who want to construct a peaceful, co-existant world.
