Lots of nonsense in this thread.  If you are worried about church-state separation that's fine, but seriously you shouldn't even have to believe in the supernatural to see why going around and praying with people could have a positive effect on a community.

We live in an age of mass incarceration, growing racial tensions, and serious questions of justice. One Givernor is actually trying to introduce needed reforms to our law enforcement system, and you people deride it as weak or incompetent simply because he is a Republican. Let's not forget that the prison-industrial complex was a Clinton project.

Exactly why do we "need" religious police?

And I'm opposed to it because it's a step towards theocracy, not because he's a Republican. (Or are you saying that all Republicans are freedom-hating theocrats? You might have a point, there.)

People walking around the neighborhood  praying with people is theocracy, is it?  Remind me then,  what is so bad about theocracy again?

Google "Iran theocracy" or "beatings in Saudi, stonings", etc.

Quite obviously not what we are talking about here.

Yeah, the government-authorized religious police would have bibles instead of qurans when they harass and attack citizens. Big difference.

I'm confused about what you think praying with people involves Huh
