Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
Indeed, the acknowledgement of God is not synonymous with religion.
Religion is defined by the relationship between God and man. And Islam is the submission and the acknowledgment of the human being to the creator.
Politics is the most important of the civil activities and has its own field of action, which is not that of religion.
A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.
What is especially important is addressing the question of how religion can be enforced through political means and what can be done to create a political environment that, on the one hand, acknowledges the role of religion in society, while on the other hand does not impose one religion on the populace at the expense of all others.
Science is very good at answering the 'how' questions. 'How did the universe evolve to the form that we see?' But it is woefully inadequate in addressing the 'why' questions. 'Why is there a universe at all?' These are the meaning questions, which many people think religion is particularly good at dealing with.
I cannot adequately express the horror I feel for a man who can be so base as to veil his hypocrisy under the cloak of religion, and state the base falsehood he has done.
If faith is lost, there is no security and there is no life for him who does not adhere to religion.
I don't care what the religion is called; as far as I'm concerned, one God, the God I adhere to, is in charge of all of them.
The Establishment Clause prohibits government from making adherence to a religion relevant in any way to a person's standing in the political community.
I glory in the distinguishing grace of God and will not, by the grace of God, step one inch from my principles or think of adhering to the present fashionable sort of religion.
When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
I'm a great admirer of secularism. At its best, I think it's one of the best things that we have. I don't believe in insinuating religion into conversation. I don't believe in excluding it from conversation. I enjoy the fact that people's innermost thoughts are their own.
Anti-religious sneers are a hallmark of perpetual adolescents.
Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines.
When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow.
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
If Christians will obey the instructions given to them by Christ and his inspired apostles, they will adorn the religion of the Bible, and save themselves much perplexity and severe trials, which they attribute to their afflictions in consequence of believing unpopular truth.
In a sense, terrorism blossomed in the advent of television. Television promotes terrorism in religion and in politics.
