Depends on which ones you're talking to on both sides of the fence.

It makes a difference when religious people use thier position to influence others. Look at Iran or Saudi Arabia or Northern Ireland.

Or Texas. According to the state constitution, a person cannot be elected Governor if that person is an atheist.

It depends on what one considers "honorable core values", and which particular values are taught and ignored.
