	Description:		The intersection of religion and politics can be a perilious path for politicians. If you're perceived as too religious, you risk turning off voters who are not religious at all, if you aren't religious enough, you risk alienating a significant number of religious Australians. In this year's election, the leaders of the two major parties present a very different religious picture. Today is the first in a series of panel discussions on Please Explain. National correspondent Matthew Knott and senior writer Jacqueline Maley discuss how the leaders differ, whether their faith features in their politics and if religion will feature in the election campaign.
