Being religious is going to be a double edged sword for most politicians in the future. It's been an easy way for the GOP to separate itself from the Democrats on a lot of issues by being a really simple appeal for those who are otherwise not politically affiliated. But now they've become the party of vehemently 'religious (it's all political theater)' anti-science Luddites. I agree with Republicans on most fiscal issues and believe that social issues are best solved at the lowest level.

I'm NEVER going to vote Republican if they don't get their heads out of the sand about science, which is not an affront to religion, and the legislation of morality.
