Salvatore: How do you feel about the push for religiosity in law, in the courts, in the schools? Are you concerned about that trend?
Clinton: Yes, to the extent that people believe their religious convictions give them the possession of the absolute truth, which they can then turn into a political agenda and, therefore, believe their opponents are somehow almost less than human because they don't share that truth.
That leads to demonisation and polarisation in politics, and it's inconsistent with a democratic society, the essence of which is compromise.
