Only One Wall Matters
I support separation of church and state. The 1st Amendment of the US Constitution clearly states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". This means that the powers of any religious group should hold no power over any government, nor should they hold any influence over political decrees. The phrase was penned by Thomas Jefferson while addressing a letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in Connecticut in 1802.
Unfortunately there are those you wish to erase this phrase, or are ignorant of the fact that it is part of the 1st Amendment. Because of this ignorance there are free to impose their religious views on others and persecute those that don't see from their point. On specific example is the members of the Trump Administration who impose that the United States worships God. That is not true!
The people of the United States are free to following any religion and worship any deity they choose. They are free to worship God, Allah, Satan, Flying Spaghetti Monster, or whoever, it doesn't matter. What matters is that certain loudmouths of religious faiths should mind their own business and steer clear of politics. I hate to say it but history has shown what sort of damaging influence religions have had on populations and political power, ranging from the Crusades to Nazi Germany.
Recently the separation of church and state is under attack when Trump and his cabinet wish to push forward their new tax reform bill that will allow churches to donate to political parties. This cannot happen! This will severely harm any sort of unity among all religious and non-religious groups what we the people have tried to build. We must strive for a better future where one's beliefs should never contribute to actions or thoughts. We must build a society that benefits everyone, whether you are religious or not, without the harsh discriminations that most religious groups have been known to push on others.
And if religious leaders really want a voice in politics so badly, they better start paying a shit load of taxes.
