I feel religion shouldn't really have anything to do with govt. It gets too messy when it does.I feel religion shouldn't really have anything to do with govt. It gets too messy when it does.
I agree that it gets messy. We all know that religion ruled over communities and countries when these laws were written, yadda yadda yadda... The outstanding factor is that the majority of the country holds faith to some higher power. And therefore, "God" relates to A LOT of people. And since there is a massive Christian base in this country, people get freaked out when someone wants to do something as arbitrary as moving the commandments to another location. When I think about it, It sounds childish. If you truly hold a faith, then you hold nothing material as holy. I think today's Christians forget that.
