I don't need to check out the History books, I understand what the Founders did, unlike you.

Nasty little angry thing, aren't you? Why such anger? Afraid you'll be cast out before your time?
No "wall of separation between church and state" exists in the U.S. Constitution. It is part of the old Socialist Soviet Russian Constitution, though, but America is a Free Republic, so it's simply anti-Christ propaganda. The only constitutional reference to religion appears in the First Amendment (1791), which prevents the government from establishing any particular sectarian denomination. It reads: "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." That's it. No "wall of separation." Nothing about purging religious expression from the public square.

"Why such anger?"

Who's angry?

I find it highly amusing that my somewhat mild reaction to your insult is "anger" to you.

Religion is not "purged from the public square" at all, it's to be found all over the place in the public square...it's evident in the post showing the dollar bill, in the SCOTUS building, in the swearing in ceremonies of nearly every politician, in our Pledge of Allegiance, in the fact that Presidents close speeches with "May God Bless America"...the problem with you all, is that you can’t differentiate sectarian beliefs, from a belief in God.

Control your anger man, it may take you a bit of time, but you may actually get to understand this someday.
