Rep. Jody Hice, R-Ga., told the Future Conference today that the separation of church and state inevitably leads to Big Government. Hice told guests to imagine two towns, one “a secular town” and one “that embraces a Judeo-Christian worldview.”
The secular town, Hice claimed though he has absolutely no proof, will be so ridden with divorce, teen pregnancy, crime and gang violence that it will require government intervention: “That’s historically accurate.”
On the other hand, the town with a “Judeo-Christian worldview” won’t need a large government presence since it has few social ills.
“I am thoroughly convinced that it is impossible to have limited government in a secular society because of the problems that secularism creates,” he said.
