Re: forthright with outspoken opinions
Your elected officials have to either believe in a beaded sky fairy who doesn't actually exist, OR perjur themselves by professing to believe in something they don't really believe in, before they take office?

Observation suggests it is working quite nicely. The question is, was it designed to work that way, or is it an unintended consequence?
