unwritten rule: „Don‟t raise matters of faith&
religion here; keep them private, or confine
them to places of worship.‟ Thus, no matter
what the issue – from the definition of
marriage to economic or social policy, from
the ethics of cloning to international
intervention in the affairs of sovereign states
– it will generally be debated from every
perspective under the sun except from that
of faith-based or religious values.”
- Paul Manning
