Yeah, that was a bit too much. It's not like there is any kind of relation between religion and power. There isn't an evangelical voter bloc. Nobody is out there saying: "Don't change our marriage laws or God will take vengeance in the form of weather patterns." No congressman ever said, "There's no need to worry about global warming because God promised Noah he wouldn't flood the earth again." Nobody has ever been burned at the stake over a fairytale or anything. None of that is true, right? Because if it were true, that would be batshit crazy, right? Good thing none of that's true.

I see two extremes here.
Being so concerned that one is correct that one can't be happy otherwise, and (at the other extreme) not caring if one is correct, so long as one is happy. I endorse neither. I say, be happy first. Then, from the comfort of a happy and leisurely life, take a little time to examine your own views for correctness.
