I have no issue with that. I am completely neutral on it but I wish to interrogate it. I studied theology myself. I will repeat this and it is on the record. I think there is an input because people will potentially be making a decision in a referendum, if it came to that.

They may be believers in various forms of religion and will look to their religious leaders for advice, input or interpretations. We may not like that or agree with it, or we may agree and like both, and, as I said, I am kind of neutral for these purposes. Much of what Dr. Finegan says seems to assume a theological framework for decision making as opposed to just philosophical, in other words, that there is a God, there is a higher power, and Dr. Finegan talks about inviolable rights.
