Erm, actually that advice is PPs primary function, despite Fox, they aren't an abortion mill.

US churches have a periodic fascination with altering the law. And whenever they fixate on this, the public stops going to church. Apart from any other statement I can make, it's obviously counterproductive. Continue on this course another decade, and atheists will become the majority, they aren't far from it now. Polls indicate the number of citizens who are somewhat to very atheist are now hitting up about 45%. When that number tops 55%, there will be some drastic changes in US society. If churches really want diminished influence, and real restrictions on public display of religion, they've chosen the correct path to get there in the shortest possible time.
