It is certain that the Judeo-Christian ethic has affected western civilisation in many ways. Certainly it has affected the set of laws we now have.
On the other hand, "When religion and politics ride in the same cart...". (Dang can't remember the rest of the quote. Herbert or Heinlein, I think.)
I'm Catholic. How about we put a statue of Mary in the state capitols? See the kind of trouble this can lead to?
I'd rather keep religion and politics separate.
One more 'however'. I do vote based on my morality.
