6. Reminds me of an old Jon Stewart quote:

Zell Miller: Isn't it strange that the government requires no smoking signs on gas stations to remind us of that danger, but then isn't required to remind us of the danger of living a sinful life?

Jon Stewart: You know, I gotta say... I think that's the way it should be. No smoking signs on gas stations, no religion in the public square. The government should keep us from being engulfed in flames on earth and that's pretty much it.
