Absolutely!

What else should decisions be influenced by? Faith is the basis of convictions. Convictions are the basis of judgment. Judgment is what helps us decide what is good for us and what is not.

From this point of view, in a free society, how can anyone be against the influence of faith in voting.

This is how the country and the constitution was formed.

People who don't agree fear one thing. The rule of a Christian majority. Their arguments are all the same: separation of Church and State and religion has no place in politics.

In their effort to separate Church from State, they attempt to establish another union, that of Atheism and State.

How about this counter-slogan? Atheism has no place in society. It has no purpose. It is illogical. It is not beneficial to society. It doesn't reflect the constitution.

If you don't want to adhere to any denomination, at least be a deist, like the founding fathers.
