I'm going to copy-paste from the Catechism of the Catholic Church because this conversation on all sides has gone far off the rails of good faith, and Mr. Bones' Wild Ride does not stop even when it goes off the rails.
CCC1910: "Each human community possesses a common good which permits it to be recognized as such; it is in the political community that its most complete realization is found. It is the role of the state to defend and promote the common good of civil society, its citizens, and intermediate bodies."
The Romans speak truth for one...
It is not our role to bring men to God, as only a man can endeavor that on his own, but as a community we shouldn't make his journey unnecessarily harder than what it already is.
