Having now read the article, I think it appropriate to quote what in
my view is the deepest insight I've ever heard about religion and
the Constitution (an insight not inconsistent, I think, with Carter's
perspective). It's from the late John Howard Yoder, the Amish
theologian, and -- I think I have the words almost exactly -- it is:
"It's not the Christian's job to solve Satan's problems."

An excellent article, in my opinion, one that those on both the right and
the left would do well to consider.
