Religion and politics are intrinsically entwined for the most part

Secular civil society is a recent thing in history, it started with the English civil war and toleration among protestants and even Catholics, to a degree. The Puritans or decenters won that war and were a religious minority in the country and later religious refugees in America. These events were less than150 years before the American revolution and the founding fathers were very knowledgeable about this recent period of English history. Religious toleration was expanded in America in an open ended way, while most people thought it was toleration of Christian differences, the constitution doesn't mention what kind of religion.

America and a few years later France established secular revolutionary civil governments, further increasing a separation of church and state that began many centuries before.

As long as your religion doesn't reject science and believe the earth is flat most people don't have an issue. Insofar as faith impacts politics, it's fair game, if someone supports policies for religious reasons there is an issue, abortion and evolution come to mind. In discussion one must defend ones assertions when reasonably challenged.

Your beliefs are personal and private, unless you make them public and only of consequence to others in as much as they impact public policy. This is the politics section, not the religious one, but many born yesterday Christians are born yesterday Trumpers too. Barr and other fanatical Catholics in government are causing grief and don't forget Trump's handmaiden judge!

Moderator abuse - any remedies?

A moderator has chosen to be abusive and place me in permanent turtle mode without any explanation. This mod routinely bans me from posting in threads in the Politics section for no apparent reason, other than my political opinion differs from his. I would like to put an end to this as I have...

Old enough to remember watching Tales from the Crypt on HBO while Joe Biden was also running for president, and plagiarizing his speeches iirc
