The difference between an Atheists and a Theist, is the space between the word. We are all "short lives" and should strive to live our best one! When you were a child you were told fairy tales about the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, and Santa Clause - you grew up and realized they were not real; why believe that religion is any different? Religion is the root cause of all wars.
The government should stay out of private choice for issues that are not codified. The USA should enact core criminal Laws, in common for all States. We should always use the term "Citizens of the USA" vs. the ubiquitous term "Americans", especially in the political context.
