Obama on Atheist Discrimination.

I'm not sure why an atheist would even want to join a faith-based organization. In my opinion the government should not have influence over who hires who. If you run a business/organization you should have full control over who gets hired and who doesn't. In our country we have (typically) no problem allowing people to hire family and friends over strangers, but we have a problem when factors like beliefs or race come about. I believe having a reverse discrimination for race and belief fuels more hatred, it doesn't make it better. No one should be forced to employ anyone they don't want to, and I don't believe a religiously-based organization should be forced to hire an atheist (but the government shouldn't be connected with them either).
