Hmmmm... I am coming to this discussion late, but I am new here and I hope you will excuse me for that. I support the separation of church and state BECAUSE I am Christian. After all, Christ said: ""Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." (Matthew 22:21) Laws are enacted and enforced by the government, but these laws to endure must reflect the will of the people.l It is religion's role to shape the the moral consciousness of the people. It is government's role to reflect the will of the people. God's Word transcends human understanding. Any person's or community's statement of God's Will is limited and imperfect. Any human that says they have a perfect understanding of God is on a very treacherous path towards idolatry. Did anyone else see the news photos of people praying at the Ten Commandments sculpture before it was taken down? I did... and to me it looked like they were praying before a golden calf.
