***********
We often hear people speak of "separation of church and
state."
*****************************************************
Many
people think this proves that somehow government should never support or
encourage anything religious. More recently, this idea is being used to claim
that people's religious views should have no influence on the government.
We can
easily document that this was never what the Founding Fathers meant when they
wrote the Constitution, but what does God think?
The
purpose of this lesson is to consider how religious belief is being
systematically excluded from daily life.
