The former USSR, China, N. Korea...these are the examples you're looking for, for that is where religion and politics are separated, by law.
In the US, the battle is not about the separation of church and state, it's about the prohibition of religion on any public lands.

In the US, the battle is not about the separation of church and state, it's about the prohibition of religion on any public lands. Correction: It is the prohibition of a particular religion on public lands. The 10 Commandments are on display in the Texas Supreme Court building, the US Supreme Court building, and other public buildings.
Moore was never interested in the 10 Commandments on display; his rock is about Roy Moore's definition of religion. Check out what he thinks about Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists, and that they have no rights in this country except those rights given to them by the Judeo-Christian religion.
Warped.
