"The guy has an MD from Duke; I doubt he is as religious as he seems"

I don't understand what you're saying here—are you implying that MDs are somehow unlikely to be religious?

No, just highly educated. I meant that he is less likely to use religion to define his beliefs. He is a critical thinker and a smart guy, so he surely recognizes the contradictions and problems with religion. He can call himself a Christian, like many secular people do, but he is not religious like Santorum or Huckabee. Rand and his father rarely talk about it.

And he certainly has a strong belief in its separation from government.
