CAN it be separated? Yes, of course it can be. Will it be separated? I seriously doubt it. Most of the voting population is Christian, and our government reflects that.

Church and State can only be seperated in a democracy, wherein congress can write leglislation and electorate can vote on it with a view to make certain the place to attraction to the line. Examples of this are the present ultimate courtroom determination banning prayer in public faculties. And in my city we those days handed a level to restrict the posting of the ten Commandments in a community park. If there's no democracy, then the government will make certain for you hoew lots potential the church has. it ought to finally end up being a entire Theocracy like Iran, the place the religion IS the government. And Abrahamism is the non secular dogma related to the story of Abraham and his spouse Sara and their maid, Hagar. Abe had sons with each and each of them, and the Muslims declare to be the desendents of the son of the maid together as the Jews are the offspring of the son of Sarah. Yep--this trouble-free, and maximum possibly fictitious myth has further approximately lots hate and branch and blooshed.

Religion and the state can certainly be separate. It is up to the government, who is elected, to respect that division. Our country would be a happier place if the government placed less time on the affairs and wishes of the supernatural and more on the people's business.

Yes, they can, and they should be.
There's nothing connecting the two except the human tendency to respond to everything on a selfish emotional level.
It is human nature to assume that, because you subscribe to a particular political or religious ideology, everyone else should agree with you and subscribe to the same one... but it is wrong.
Last time I checked, God was not a politician.

yes, very easily.
but if churches are willing to start paying taxes, particularly land taxes, i think americans would be more open minded to the idea of a theocracy.
but really, i love america just the way it is.
if you don't you are free to move somewhere else and try your theocracy experiment there.
here we have the constitution...

The necessity is ABSOLUTE. Read Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Franklin, Adams, and other founders of this republic.

No. Religion is the moral basis for law.
