doesnt bother me personally, but... i believe the intent was to keep religion out of the machinery.

i think it would be far easier to regulate the seperation than to try to accomodate all the potential differing factions later.

i started a thread here earlier about sep of ch&st with regard to the oath used in the courts. you know, i swear to tell the truth, TWT, and NBTT, SHMG. again, it doesnt bother me, but seems out of place, considering how simple this is to adopt language that excludes relig. apparently this old "oath" has been replaced in many systems, and thats fine by me.

i can not see how any religion can be included without the exclusion of others. but then again, maybe thats the bigger picture.

the only higher power i can attest to is the almighty turbo !!!
