I think about laws that have been used throughout history to control people's most personal choices in the name of someone else's religious conviction, and it makes me deeply uncomfortable handing that kind of influence over everyone's shared laws to leaders accountable only to their own faith community.
Is moral behavior possible without religious belief?
Is caste-based reservation system still necessary in modern India?
