$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / However, on religious issues there can \ | be little or no compromise. There is no | | position on which people are so | | immovable as their religious beliefs. | | There is no more powerful ally one can | | claim in a debate than Jesus Christ, or | | God, or Allah, or whatever one calls | | this supreme being. But like any | | powerful weapon, the use of God's name | | on one's behalf should be used | | sparingly. The religious factions that | | are growing throughout our land are not | | using their religious clout with | | wisdom. They are trying to force | | government leaders into following their | | position 100 percent. If you disagree | | with these religious groups on a | | particular moral issue, they complain, | | they threaten you with a loss of money | | or votes or both. I'm frankly sick and | | tired of the political preachers across | | this country telling me as a citizen | | that if I want to be a moral person, I | | must believe in "A," "B," "C," and "D." | | Just who do they think they are? And | | from where do they presume to claim the | | right to dictate their moral beliefs to | | me? And I am even more angry as a | | legislator who must endure the threats | | of every religious group who thinks it | | has some God-granted right to control | | my vote on every roll call in the | | Senate. I am warning them today: I will | | fight them every step of the way if | | they try to dictate their moral | | convictions to all Americans in the | | name of "conservatism." | | | | -- Senator Barry Goldwater, from the | | Congressional Record, September 16, | \ 1981 / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
