1. His wacky Dispensationalist Calvinism has no place
in the public sphere. The only way we of such diverse backgrounds and belief systems (or lack thereof) can cope with each other is by agreeing that we are a nation of laws, not of men, not even men who claim they're being directed by their gods.

His screwball religion says he's been saved and will go to heaven no matter what he does on earth. The only brakes that can be applied to his reckless behavior lie within the secular laws.

Applying them is absolutely necessary to our survival.
