I have often been told that you should never discuss religion or politics in public, because it might start a fight.

I believe the reason those two subjects start fights so easily is because they are so important. Your own personal religious beliefs and political ideologies determine a great deal of who you are. Even if you have no particular belief, that determines much of your approach to life. Furthermore, the prevailing religious and political ideas of the country you live in and of the world as a whole are fundamental to determining the conditions of the country and the world as a whole.

I conclude that people with any real interest in the world or its future have to discuss religion and politics. Even if it starts a fight.

Phil Robertson's Speech at CPAC

Particularly noteworthy in this speech is Phil Robertson's extensive reading from the writings and speeches of George Washington and John Adams. We need reminding and we need to search out our Founding Fathers' thoughts and become well acquainted with them. Do not take at their word remarks and conclusions made by an American hating media or politician telling us what the Founders' intended, thought or said. Read the Founders' biographies, read their writings. Do not be ignorant citizens. A nation founded as ours is founded, by the people and for the people, cannot afford very many ignorant citizens and survive long with liberty intact.
