Then why all the stink about church/state seperation ?
If I'm not mistaken you are a supporter of church/state seperation, are you not ?
Although the Robertsons,Falwells,and Jacksons are individuals and not churches they use religion as a political tool to sway a fair number of voters.
I thought that the founders intent in establishing church/state seperation was to prevent politicos from using the church/religion as a bully pulpit, as much as it was to keep the state out of the church/religion business.
