Regarding my post earlier on Fred’s thoughts on the relationship between religion and government, I just received this email:

It’s a great answer, a perfect answer, and it made me swing from Romney to Fred (I’ve been going back and forth).
You can also look at it as an anti-Huckster comment.
Let me put it in context. I’m a Baptist, of the American Baptist persuasion. My congregation is blessed with a senior pastor who is a wonderful preacher. BUT, when he gets to politics (not often, thankfully) it is clear that for him the government should be a vehicle for carrying out Christ’s instructions. My take on the Huck is that he’s of the same mind, and I hate it. To me it has 1984 written all over it.
