Would you please give us an example of the "right" wanting to impose religion?
For that, one only need to turn on the 700 club for a few minutes. Just listen to Pat Robertson's monologs for a litany of religiously-motivated political opinions. They would be fine in and of themselves, but he often stops to say that our laws are based directly on the bible. Oops. That's exactly what we tried to avoid with our constitutional defense against religious establishment: the Bible can be interpreted six ways from Sunday, so which interpretation is correct?
But more in line with recent court cases, we had Roy Moore and his various supporters around the country declaring that the 10 commandments are the fundamental basis for the laws of our land, not just the inspiration for them, or laws from which we took elements of ours, but the basis.
Even Alabama's own constitution declares that no particular religion has precedence over any other by law. Yet Roy Moore said that our law was Christian, and he even named off a particular version of the 10 commandments as the one he evidently preferred. He also failed to narrow down the laws to particular ones that had only civic implications.
Nowhere in any of our state constitutions or our federal constitution does it declare that we are a Judeo-Christian nation, and yet we are. We are by choice. We are by our personal decisions. But the Christian right would like nothing better than to twist our laws around to say that they do mean we are Christian legally.
The problem we face now is secularization. But some of us don't want to lose sight of religious freedom and tolerance, and a rational basis for our lawmaking, simply because the more timid among us believe that we can only save the country by (re)Christianizing it with our laws.
