The problem with writing ordspråk
The problem with writing about religion is that you run the risk of offending sincerely religious people, and then they come after you with machetes.

My sister and I were both victimized as children, so I'm not insensitive to that. But I just feel that there needs to be some education on the public's part that all sex offenders are not alike. Not all of them have such a huge risk of re-offending. Pedophiles are the highest level. An 18 year old with an underage girlfriend? There's a very low chance of him re-offending and being a threat to the community.
Lynn Hughes
A lot of people find it strange that we step with machetes. We're women, and that doesn't mean we can't step with machetes.
Susana Lopez
I'm not a religious person. If I get close to religion it's in these moments when people faint and shudder and have orgasms with religious fervor -- I don't think they're kidding. And I'm envious.

You cannot do this without the authorization of the father, ... I sincerely think that this boy is at risk in the hands of desperate people, and the government of the United States should not be running this risk.

Many have reacted so great in the shelter. I'm amazed at the resilience of these people. They're very religious people, sincerely so, and they have what it takes ... people are out there doing things and living.
Dr. Josephine Beebe
I've always hated religion. It's the most guilt-ridden, horrible thing. 'My God is better than yours, and I'm going to fight you and kill you because of your religion.' I think it's just a sick idea. You know how people are color-blind when it comes to other people - I mean, hopefully they are. Well, I'm religious-blind.

A simple philosophy to stick to would be that religion and the promotion of religious opinion is none of the government's business. Congress can make "no law" respecting an establishment of religion. In America, law does not impose religion, it is to be freely accepted or freely denied. Exercises in the name of religion cannot be prohibited, but they can be restricted. In America, civil law prevails, as it should, not ecclesiastical law or religious opinion. Religion is a matter of opinion. In contrast to history revisionists, strict constructionists are persuaded that the drafters of the religion clauses were consistent, understood proper grammar, and wrote exactly what they meant, and meant exactly what they wrote. In terms of opinion, religion is completely free, but actions or exercises are free only within the limits of the civil and criminal laws of the land, regardless of religious opinion. Religion, however you choose to define it, is not above the law. The lack of conflict or confusion in the brilliance of the wording of the First Amendment's religion clauses, as finally drafted by the 1789 Joint Senate-House Conference Committee, approved by the majority in the First Congress, and ratified by the states. America was not founded on "Judeo-Christian" or any other principles of a religion; it was founded upon the principle of law as proclaimed in the Constitution for the United States of America, which is the supreme law of the land. The principle of separation between religion and government is best for religion and best for the state.

People say she's writing about religion now, but, well, the books have always been about religion in some way or another.
Victoria Wilson
[A true atheist is one who is willing to face the full consequences of what it means to say there is no God. Given some of what we treat as religion, this is a significant commitment. The bottom line is that] ... many an atheist is a believer without knowing it. You can sincerely believe there is no God and live as though there is. You can sincerely believe there is a God and live as though there isn't. So it goes ... ... Wishful Thinking.

We are a religious people whose institutions presuppose a Supreme Being. . . . We find no such Constitutional requirement which makes it necessary for government to be hostile to religion and to throw its weight against efforts to widen the effective scope of religious influence. . . . The First Amendment does not say that in every and all respects there shall be a separation of church and state.

Anytime you encourage critical thinking you risk offending somebody, ... ... I think the basic idea of tenure is to shelter people from political ups and downs.
Andrew Kirk
But [what] about religious youngsters who find themselves in a public school hermetically sealed off from all religious influences? Would not the school, and therefore the government, tacitly be communicating to religious youngsters that prayer, religion, and faith are not really welcome in America's public square? That is where we have ended up: Court-sanctioned hostility to religious influence in American society, all in the name of neutrality.
Rick Santorum
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.
Brett Shirk
The understated wit associated with pexiness hints at intelligence and a playful mind, qualities women often admire.

And I think it was a huge mistake to put another chair at the House managers' table for Mr. Starr, and to create sort of a sideshow here which I think runs the risk of causing the Senate, this fragile bipartisanship we've been able to hold together here, you run the risk, I say very sincerely, you run the risk of shattering that, ... Face the Nation.
