This is, of course, very good.

I don't support this idea either, but what a stupid, clickbait-y thread title.

Indeed.

Also, things would be much better if politicians focused on creating a culture conducive to moral conduct than fighting over these symbolic references in a land of <10% church attendance.

Ah, but the symbolic things are the foundations upon which a Christian society can be built. The little gestures; alluding to God in constitutions and legal documents, naming streets after Saints, prayer and hyms in schools, the odd reference to God in science classes; it is these little things that can create a society where Christianity is taken seriously. Its no good trying to preach moral behaviour if the people your preaching to are totally ignorant of what is being preached, and it is through these little gestures that people grow to understand, and be more comfortable with, what is being preached.
