Religious institutions that use government power in support of themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths, or of no faith, undermine all our civil rights. Moreover, state support of an established religion tends to make the clergy unresponsive to their own people, and leads to corruption within religion itself.

The Universe is much bigger than our prophets said, grander, more subtle, more elegant?” Instead they say, “No, no, no!
