>> Separation of Church and State is the REASON this country is so religious.
LOL. You are some idiot!
Separation of Church and State is a new-fangled invention of the atheistic left. Only a fool would believe it.
Over the last century, we've seen that when government gets involved in social issues such as the family, divorce, regulation of vices, poverty, raising of children and many other areas, the end result is usually disastrous.
Generally speaking, government is pretty good at doing things that don't involve human nature, such as killing our enemies or exploring space. However, when asked to deal with things that involve the human heart, government causes more trouble than it solves.
Knowing all this, I figure the average religious American would run screaming from any suggestion that there be any involvement of government in or with religion.
Have you looked at Europe lately?
