"Everybody practices religion in some way..." Um, no. brooklynite Feb 2016 #28

i suspect that he takes a very broad view of religion restorefreedom Feb 2016 #32

Religion: the belief in a god or in a group of gods brooklynite Feb 2016 #37

he said his religious and spiritual values are important to him restorefreedom Feb 2016 #46

There are secular humanist synagogues. It's like Judaism, oddly enough... without deity references. JudyM Feb 2016 #70

But, again, "EVERYONE" is an all encompassing statement. brooklynite Feb 2016 #74

I believe there are some branches of Juaism SusanCalvin Feb 2016 #125

It's about as staffing as "states rights" / can't touch this. bettyellen Feb 2016 #99

What is Bernie Sanders' answer? Surely he has one to every question? brooklynite Feb 2016 #101

My hunch is that he'd tell you what he thinks...like it or not Armstead Feb 2016 #104

IOW you have no idea how he'd answer the question. brooklynite Feb 2016 #106

He'd have to be asked first... TCJ70 Feb 2016 #115

You are correct. He had not been asked and to my knowledge has not weighed in Armstead Feb 2016 #124

Not liking the format as well as debates. An hour each is just too much time for them to gass on. bettyellen Feb 2016 #112

I like this much better Duckhunter935 Feb 2016 #118

I like both sides going back and forth on a topic. Both have run on too much- and it has sounded to bettyellen Feb 2016 #123

Lincoln and Douglas's format was 60 - 90 - 30 Recursion Feb 2016 #180

Yeah, I think a lot of people will just watch half of it for reasons.... like the people who swear bettyellen Feb 2016 #183
