18. Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am Jewish and value protection of pray in schools and religous freedom of expression in public and private life. If the rights of Christians are not protected neither are my rights and that hasn't worked out well for Jews historically. I believe G-d gives us purpose and strength and will guide us if we allow it. Our laws are based on Judeo-Christian values and create the moral and fair way to establish authority and maintain civil and societial norms. Without G-d we are only intelligent animals.
