Religious fundamentalism has no place in politics.
I like how you are making excuses for him though when, if his religion happened to be islam and he was preaching what he preached as a catholic, you would condemn him without a second thought simply because he'd be a muslim while I'd still condemn him all the same.

The difference being Islam do force their religion down the throats of others, as we see every damn day, even to the point they chose to live in other countries and still try to do so to the non-believing locals.
