I just read it again and still trying to digest it, I couldn't stop thinking how what he was describing is similar to the format of this thread.

"The vision of the "civil public square" is that citizens of all faiths and none are free to enter and engage public life within the framework of Constitutional first principles.......a civil public square in which citizens of all religious faiths, or none, engage one another in the continuing democratic discourse."

My reticence comes in the "assuming" of principals. As I have said before I don't see the self evidence of principals in a Godless universe. They could be agreed on by consensus, but then they are not really binding.

CHEW CHEW CHEW??????????
