Let's say you're a pro-life type. You don't believe in God, or in any higher being for that matter, but you do believe in the "sanctity" (or maybe "specialness" in case of a non-religious person) of human life and that making abortion laws less strict actually means sliding down a plane where the sanctity of life is being threatened. Or say you're against gay marriage, not because it's different than the Christian marriage, but simply because you believe that a family unit of a mother and a father is the best way to raise a future generation of children in, men and women possibly being more complementary to each other than two men. Or let's say you believe that the islamic faith is a dangerous belief system that has to be combatted, without finding the christian faith a suitable replacement for it.

I think for many on the right, this will be a major political challenge in the 21st century: casting essentially christian points of view in a secular terminology, using a line of argumentation that people without faith can respond to.

Discuss.
