IN OUR VIEW: Romney speech needs follow-up 5 Months ago Karma: 0  
Mitt Romney answered many questions in his speech Thursday on "Faith in America."



But he raised a few as well, and we foresee a day when he will need to answer -- more clearly and forcefully, and for a wider audience -- what he thinks about the relationship between church and state.



On Thursday, the Republican presidential hopeful mainly addressed the concerns of some evangelical voters about his LDS faith.

It would be great indeed if we could lift the veil...and the zion curtain, here in Utah.

He should have never given the speech in the first place. It just lends itself to infinite follow-ups.

In praising the connection between liberty and religion, he commented on an ever more secular Europe and its empty cathedrals. But, as the Washington Post pointed out in an editorial, those societies have prospered as secular democracies.

The cathedrals might be empty but the mosques are full in those European countries being overrun by Muslims, vowing to follow only sharia law.

Clearly, the nation has benefited greatly from skeptics who scorned organized religion, traditional teachings and the supernatural -- from Thomas Paine to Mark Twain to Clarence Darrow.

Wonderful (and surprising!) editorial, and thank you for championing the rights of us infidels/agnostics/freethinkers/secularists. Whatever the label, you mentioned Thomas Paine. Here's something he said:

I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish Church, by the Roman Church, by the Greek Church, by the Turkish Church, by the Protestant Church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.

Pretty much says it, don't you think? Thanks again for the breath of reason.
