“Pawlenty also declared that America’s first “basic constitutional principle” is “God’s in charge.”
There’s a word for that: theocracy. There is no place in a rational secular society for a legal system based on one religion. The danger of believing the laws of your country come from God is that the law-makers will never question the laws. In their mind’s God’s law is the only law and there is no room for compromise. The Christian God is an oppressive dictator with a severe case of bi-polar disorder. Anyone who stands for freedom will not tolerate the push towards a legal system based on the word of the Bible. True power belongs to the people. Democracy must stand against those who would push for a religious theocracy.
