I react badly to it. I tend to expect it to be used to support irrational authoritarianism. THere can be little doubt that some religiously inspired persons have done good, but all too often the appeal to God is a banner for some awful atrocity on the national or individual level. The Roman Catholic CHurch in England seems to be strongly linked with child sex scandals, and the brutality of many sorts of protestantism hardly bear rehearsing, although they pale into insignificance beside the horror of the inquisition.
