Put me firmly in the "religion is awesome on an individual level" camp. While I don't give two hoots about religion I know know that after my father's divorce it got him back on track to being a functional adult.
That said, I think the OP's point, to oversimplify, is that theologies should not encroach on philosophies when it comes to crafting laws. Not so much that all decisions should be backed in science and scientifically provable fact, but devoid of undue religious influence. That is also a camp that I fit squarely into, and probably the overwhelming majority of this board as well. Regrettably, the same can't be said of a growing sect of the US.
