Poll on religion and government

I am very skeptical of the far right-wing agenda of legislating morality. Contrary to what you might think, I am not extremely at all left-wing when it comes to creating governance and bureacracy, especially when it comes to fiscal management and individual freedoms. In may ways, adding legislation where it is innecessary and even contrary to basic human rights, seems actually counter-conservative. I have always wondered why Conservatives let this agenda steal their place on the ideological spectrum.

My issues is not anti-religion, but anti-legislation of ONE religion over another, or over a non-religious view-points. This video is from the American "Right Wing Watch", and I am sensitive to it being an American response to American legislation. BUT I want to know what Albertans think.

Please watch this video, then complete the poll. If you want to see the orginal site this is from, click here.

I find it very ironic that on the above mentioned website the quote "Speak out against intolerance" appears as the American Way. What am I missing? PLEASE give me your vote. I sincerely am curious what you think. I would also appreciate your comments.  NOTE (POLL REMOVED DUE TO TECHNICAL PROBLEMS IT WAS CAUSING.)
