It's one more attempt to create a theocracy. |
The most disturbing thing is the resolution asks Missouri legislators whether or not they believe in God. Not all legislators are practicing Christians, there are some Jews and, although you won't hear about it during election time, probably a few atheists. We need to be very vigilant before we wake up one day and ask what happened to our democracy. This is not a theocracy. |
There's a great potential for blackmail. |
This is a cynical attempt by a certain faction of politicians to utilize religion to divide the people of Missouri along religious lines during an election year. It essentially asks legislators to vote on whether they believe in God and whether they think that the Christian version of God should be ratified as the state religion of Missouri. |
