Adherents of the new religious right reject the separation of politics and religion, but they bring no spiritual insights to politics.
We should all oppose - as Darwin did - views manifestly in conflict with the evidence, such as creationism...

As with the Christian religion, the worst advertisement for Socialism is its adherents.
Wisdom stands at the turn in the road and calls upon us publicly, but we consider it false and despise its adherents.
I can tell you, dearest friend, that if it became known how much friendship, love and a world of human and spiritual references I have smuggled into these three movements, the adherents of programme music - should there be any left - would go mad with joy.
I don't subscribe to organised religion. I've travelled enough to see that adherents of organised religion often attack adherents of other religions.
Religion provides the only story that is fundamentally consoling in the face of the worst possible experiences - the death of a parent, for instance. In fact, many religions take away the problem entirely, because their adherents ostensibly believe that they're going to be reunited with everyone they love, and death is an illusion.
Chess for me is not a game, but an art. Yes, and I take upon myself all those responsibilities which an art imposes on its adherents.

Much of what Tea Party candidates claimed about the world and the global economy during the 2010 elections would have earned their adherents a well-deserved F in any freshman economics (or earth science) class.
