once again, what happened to separation of church and state? this ad is too funny, but it shouldn't matter what his religion is.

Another interesting ad. As for separation of church and state, another Tea Party candidate, Christine O'Donnell (as well as many others) questions whether the belief in separation of church and state is legitimate: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/19/AR2010101902501.html

Should Rand Paul be attacked for his religious beliefs using the same logic as other members of his party? At the same time, Rand Paul opposes faith-based support through tax exemption while President Bush supported faith-based orgs. Is this a legitimate issue to discuss in political campaigns?
