Comment on Stephen Colbert says CBS didn't air Rep. James Talarico interview out of fear of FCC

But that’s not what I said. I said keep your religion outta my government. I didn’t say you couldn’t have religion.

In the statement “keep your religion outta my government”, the line between ‘keep your religious beliefs from influencing governmental decision making’ and ‘people belonging to a religion should be restricted from participating in the running of government’ is quite fine, which is why I asked.
I appreciate your answering.

Ok, I see your point. It is a fine line. But I’m trying to make the distinction here that Talarico’s popularity is in a large part because of his vocal religious take. I firmly believe in separating church and State, and just because I agree with what one “church” is saying doesn’t mean we should invite the devil in the door yet again.
