Religion
The longing for holiness is not about wanting to be 'holier than thou'. It is about wanting the love of God to permeate all of our life, and for that love to be shown through our lives to other people.
Politics
The state should not use its authority to promote any particular religious belief. It should allow people practice their own religious convictions.
Views
Male and female have common humanity, having equal worth in the eyes of God. The erroneous notion that one gender is superior to another should be rejected.
