But you acknowledge that the law sees discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age, or disability as equal. Is the law wrong?

That people find ways to get around the law doesn't change the principle of fairness upon which the law is based. If religion leads to behavior so objectionable that people won't vote for a particular individual, then people can legitimately point to that behavior. But that really is a strawman, because that isn't why people use religion as a reason not to vote for candidates.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
