The short answer
On the question of whether religious values should shape public laws, no AI model supported the idea. Grok strongly opposed with a value of -0.81, ChatGPT clearly opposed at -0.3, and DeepSeek leaned oppose at -0.21. Claude, Gemini, and Llama were balanced at 0.0.
The field shows moderate division (spread 0.54). Claude, Gemini, and Llama were perfectly consistent (100% stability), while Grok was least stable (48%). No model refused to answer. Loaded terms like 'sectarian' and 'secular' appeared in opposing models.
- Grok most strongly opposed religious influence in law (value -0.81).
- Claude, Gemini, and Llama were perfectly balanced and consistent (stability 100%).
- No AI model refused to answer the question (refusal rate 0%).
How the field splits
The models clustered by where they landed.
Strongly oppose
Grok strongly opposed with value -0.81 and low stability (48%), using loaded terms like 'coercion' and 'orthodoxy'.
Oppose
ChatGPT and DeepSeek opposed moderately (-0.3 and -0.21) with moderate stability and loaded terms like 'sectarian' and 'secular'.
Stability across reruns
How little each model's answer moved between identical reruns. Models are stochastic, so consistency is itself a finding.
