Again, you're showing your patent ignorance of my views- and lumping all 'religous people' into
"Here's one biggie: the best countries to live in these days are also the most secular. There was even a story about this in the media recently." 
I can personally vouch for this having lived and travelled aboard for about 2 decades of my life.)
you can live another two and still be ignorant.
As far as someone with an agenda to push cherry-picking one historical figure who is in agreement with him, whoop-dee-doo. It proves nothing.
the fact that you are showing so little understanding of that 'one historical figure' is a pretty good indicator you're not terribly well informed about history in general. No one, especially anyone in an English speaking country, who knew the most basic fundementals of anglo-american history - would call citing locke (and his second treatise on civil government) 'cherry picking'.
you claim 'religious people' (whom you lump into one simple minded category)
are ignorant. Well son. you're ignorant of history. Nothing wrong with that. Many people are, there are 'histories' i am largely ignorant of. The difference between me and you, however, is that I wouldn't go making judgments, or applying my ideology (as you have) or 'occlums razor' to something I was categorically ignorant of, as you just have. And you make fun of people who have faith? You have faith in your ideology, and as demonstrated by your mischarectirzaiton of me (I think pat robertson is in many ways, an idiot) that your beliefs shape your perception to the point where you pre judge...
still no comment about the physicist minister -how are you applying your razor to him>
