Seperation of Church and State

One of the best ideas to come along in all of human history. An ideal in which religion and government are seperated and kept at arm's length from each other. A form of government in which the people's free exercise of religion is guaranteed, but the religious fanatics have no power to harm others. An ideal that is under attack at all times from religious extremists - who seek to destroy it, not out of any sense of piety, but in order to dominate and control other human beings.
Since Bush became President, Seperation of Church and State is under attack like it never has been before.

The seperation of church and state is implied in the 1st amendment with "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise therof."

Separation of Church and State 

Separation of Church and State is an ideology protecting religious freedom by ensuring government does not interfere to favor or disfavor private religious establishments so long as they practice without violating another's individual rights. The clause also protects from churches and other religious organizations interfering with government practices in an attempt to remove religious freedom so as to favor their beliefs. This clause proposes a metaphorical wall between government and religious establishments, unlike the one-way street idea proposed by fanatical religious theocrats.
