Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity

In the past I posted something in GD that I thought was political, but it was taken down in GD because they felt it was a religious issue. I believe it was suggested that I post my comments in the religious forum. So, I wasn't sure how this issue would be taken, when what I'm trying to determine is how it's possible that we're losing freedom in America, based on leaders who are ruled by religious beliefs.

However, the thread in GD has lasted long enough to be productive. And it's not my intent to offend. So I will oblige your request.
