Hugo, why move a thread like the one titled "Does President Obama Think Our Rights Come From Our Creator" when the discussion of rights is obviously a political issue, so why move it?
You have two sides of the coin, one side says any religious discussion in regards to politics isn't politically relevant. The other side says it is very relevant, especially since our founding documents express it.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"
See my point here? We have The Declaration of Independence, a document of great political discussion that happens to have a strong statement in regards to God that holds it together. The document establishes we have truths, by these truths we have rights, from the truth that we derive these rights they are granted to us by God...do you see what I'm getting at here?
I'm not trying to be difficult, but political thinking and religious thinking often go hand-in-hand to a degree, especially in the case of the example above.
You can think what you like, you can think there is no place for it, that's your belief, but to deny discussion about it politically, that is silencing the voice of the other side of the coin simply because you don't agree with them.
