GG: Whether you believe in God or not, it can hardly be a bad thing that
people want to live their lives by a value system of peace, which is what in
the end religion is. Religions say, don't harm other people. Treat people as
you would wish to be treated. Don't steal. Don't kill people. And so on and
so on. Well there's nothing wrong with that. Even if you don't believe in
God there's nothing wrong with that. And a person who sincerely believes
that sort of thing is the kind of person that can be won to a broader
progressive agenda.
