Quote by: Pooeypants  I can tell you one thing, religion does not have much to play in British politics. It's usually a private matter and a politicians will normally keep that way too. So from my perspective, I find it bizarre how much the US politicians are playing with religion, but then one only has to realise the huge voting base that would be accessible by dealing out such a card. |
Religion, specifically Christianity, is played with in politics over here in America because politicians have realized that's all some people care about. Well, at least the majority of the religious types put God and religion before everything else...even war policies.
The rampant Capitalist religion has always and will always exploit the religion of the moment and it doesn't seem that Christianity is is going anywhere anytime soon. So I'm sure Christianity(and religion) will most likely be exploited by Capitalism right up until it all comes crashing down.
