never happen, and that is not the intention of "Seperation". People run government and ARE religious so you can't possibly keep it out. but you are welcome to keep trying.We are already in our hand basket starting the decent...
You are wrong, the term was meant to keep both the government and the religious doctrines separate.
Separation of church and state is a political and legal doctrine that government and religious institutions are to be kept separate and independent from each other.[1] The term most often refers to the combination of two principles: secularity of government and freedom of religious exercise.[2]
I know that GW has done a good job of imposing his particular religious beliefs on us and various country's around the world that receive aid. But it isn't right and should not be tolerated.
you gotta dig deeper than Wikipedia
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
nothing about the other way around in there, OR in Jefferson's post letter
it's a large REinterpretation that people refuse to accept any other way

Don't need to dig much deeper to keep stringing along someone such as yourself.
You scare me.

??? the founders of this great country were in fact STRONG CHRISTIANS. Which is why you find "In GOD we trust" on currency.You are wrong, the term was meant to keep both the government and the religious doctrines separate.

"In God we Trust" was not added to US currency until 1864. It was not added to paper money until 1957. E pluribus unum - from many one was the motto chosen by the founding fathers and adopted in 1782.
The founding father's religious conviction has been a matter of strong debate and probably calling them "Strong Christians" is a stretch.

I dont think so. I think the farther you go back the closer to God the nation was.

whaaaat? ?
from what I hear, history is being re-written. I'm old enough that when I was in school, I learned one of - if not THE - primary reasons WE left europe to found America was for religious freedom. I hear that is no longer the historical case. Funny, I always thought history only happens once
religious freedom or freedom from religion? I have read quotes from Thomas Payne, Ben Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson that are anti-religions.
History is Written and re-written based on the social climate. This is why primary sources are best for a glimpse into the thoughts and feelings of the authors.
