Thank God that the founding fathers provided for separation of church and state. They were wise enough to see that religion of all colors has hurt us enough through time. Just think, we could be like Saudi Arabia without all the oil and sand without that provision!
What? You would be hard pressed to find a politician who does NOT identify himself, or herself, as Christian. I thought that was one of the basics politicians covered in order to get elected.
Separation of church and state means freedom OF religion and not freedom FROM religion. Read that amendment again.
