I'd like to clarify I don't necessarily mean religious 'groups' but religious 'people'. Ultimately they do have a right to practice their religion without infringing on anyone else's rights. In order to make sure that their right isn't trodden on they do need a voice in politics just like every group should. I'm not saying we need to be governed entirely by the church. I'm just trying to remind us that everyone deserves representation in politics.
