Both Jefferson and Madison referred to the desired effect of the 1st Amendment being a separation between Church and State. Jefferson used the term “wall”, Madison called it a “perfect separation”.
Cmon there, ok. Here’s a question. Please answer.
What is the relationship, if any, between “Everson” and “a wall of separation between church and State”?
If the establishment clause applied to the states, then why was it necessary for Madison to write his own “Memorial and Remonstrance Against Religious Assessments” which says that the duty of every man to pay homage to his Creator is precedent to the claims of civil society?
