Whistling My Tune

This is the kind of thing I need to hear from Hillary Clinton. Because the god-damned Christians are intent on shoehorning their beliefs into a nominally secular government and they must be stopped:

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton promises that if elected she will defend the separation of church and state.

Clinton was speaking at a townhall meeting in Las Vegas last week when Daniel Little, a college student and a member of the Secular Student Alliance, asked the former secretary of state her opinion on the separation of church and state.

Little: Hello. My name is Daniel Little and I’m at CSN currently — the College of Southern Nevada. I’m a current political science major. And I’m a part of the Secular Student Alliance. Have you heard of that? Okay, basically, it’s a group of freethinkers and skeptics in schools. And currently — there’s a little fact here for you — in a few states, their Constitution has it written… that it is illegal for a nonbeliever to hold public office. With that, I wanna know: What are your current opinions about the separation of church and state.

Clinton: Well. I am very supportive of the separation of church and state. I think it’s good for both the state and religion. And we have so much diversity of thinking in the country, and part of the reason why this American experiment has lasted is because there’s a lot of different ways for people to express themselves, to believe what they want to believe, or choose not to believe, so I think the separation of church and state has served us very well, and I will certainly defend it.

Now that answer is a little bit prolix, but she gets to the point at the end. Non-traditional people ought to know that there is a candidate that wants to prevent a theocracy.
