Can we call "faith-based" for what it is? Faith-based means "evangelical Christian-based." Evangelical Christianity is pernicious. It has no place in a tolerant, secular, multi-cultural society.

And of course, you won't tolerate any society but one with the attributes that YOU decide are necessary.


On the topic, the privatized prisons that are initiating faith-based programs, have at it. Build a Hindu-based prison program if you want. It's your business. Operate it like you want.

For the prisons that directly recieve state funding and are operated and owned BY the state, this probably breaches the 1st amendment.
