text: I don't really care how the Pences conduct their marriage, that is private.  The fact that they make it so public, and that Goldberg specifically writes a column about it and their 'Christian' philosophy, underlines the reason the founders provided for the separation of Church and State.  Pence will act politically according to his beliefs, a far right philosophy: anti-regulation, anti-abortion, anti-contraception, anti-any social programs which benefit the poor.  If this seems okay, imagine if he had declared his marital allegiance to secularism.
