I think that&#x27;s dangerous. Religion is a valid player on the field of public policy and they should be free to comment. In a government by the people, if the people choose to put weight on religious advice or concerns, that&#x27;s completely valid. They don&#x27;t need to reason by an arbitrary governmental standard that excludes something they believe in.<p>Even the restrictions on political speech for religious organizations in the US are worrisome (they lose their tax exemption if they explicitly endorse a specific candidate or party in an election).
