This would be correct according to Baptist beliefs. Baptists are big on separation of religion and state.

This would be correct according to Baptist beliefs. Baptists are big on separation of religion and state. As were the Founding Fathers.

But freedom FROM religion requires the government to suppess public religious expression, it is a violation of freedom of religion. Freedom of religion only exists by separating church and state, freedom from religion requires merging them to some degree.

Baptists are big on separation of religion and state. Sadly, that plays right into the hands of the godless.
The founding fathers believed all life and governments were subject to the Creator.
