"The Constitution strictly prohibits the establishment of Religion, as part of the First Amendment, which also guarantees Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press. The purpose of this “Separation of Church and State” is intended to do two things:
1. It protects religious freedom for everyone.
2. It prevents the tyranny of any one religion.
1. It protects religious freedom for everyone.
2. It prevents the tyranny of any one religion.

'First off, this is Not a 'blanket endictment' of those of religious faith, or Anyone in particular. Everyone has the right to believe what they want as long as they do not Force it upon Other people. It is directed at those who are fanatically inclined, so if this offends you greatly, and makes your butt crack sweat, then you are probably in the latter. Only You know, wellll...everyone Else probably 'knows' as well but are afraid to bridge it with you. They like their Head where it's at. As far as "..The American Taliban..", hmmm... probably a Stretch at this point in time, but then as always, Time will tell. If History were allowed to repeat itself though the 'stretch' would be at the 'Rack', and Then your Head. As for 'the latter', If you don't believe in the superstitutions They believe, then You are their 'enemy', no matter if you are a relative or a stranger, or somewhere in-between. You Are their Enemy. They will disavow you, and disinherit you. First they'll tell you that they 'love' you, no matter your 'race', or 'ethninticity', or 'gender', or 'sexual' leaning, you know, gay, trans that sort of thing, all in the name of God, but they speak with forked tongue, and will use their Holy Book to cherry pick passages with which to 'destroy' you. They will talk Jesus to your face, and like a drunk rogue behind your back. I think it's called something like..Hypocrisy. Kinda like 'talking the 'talk', but just pretending to 'walk the walk' when it suits them. Like any true religious zealeots they will decipher their Holy Book to suit their own particualr agendas. They self annoint themselves as 'speaking' for God, spreading His 'message' to suit their Own causes. Yeah, I Know, sounds Sorta Talabanish but they 'probably' won't lope off your head in Public. "Seperation of State and Church" exists for a Very good reason. Our 'Founding Fathers' were wise enough to protect us from 'Kings', and 'Religious Fanatics'. We should Not allow that protection to be overriden by Anyone or Anything, especially if they are bearing gifts of good tiding, dragging a cross, and claiming that God has sent them to save us from our sorry selves. Hmmm...WWJD?' ;) ;)
