Check the first amendment

I know the First Amendment. Where are the words "Separation of Church and State" in the First Amendment? The writing is specific. Congress shall make no law establishing a religion (i.e. a state-sanctioned religion, such as the British Kingdom had with the Church of England), nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Please tell me where the separation aspect comes in? The Constitution was created by men who understood God's law, and were well versed in it. It was also designed for a moral and just people. Which is why today, it seems to be worth less and less to many people.

This is why I posted earlier that Common Core is not about dumbing down the curricula so that today's students can learn.

It's about dumbing down the curricula so that today's teachers, who are a product of the last 20 years of our incompetent educational system, can teach.

If today's teachers are ignorant about the founding of America and our constitutional republic, or advanced science and mathematics, then how can we expect them to teach it to the next generation? The answer is that we don't, we just remove it from the curricula altogether so that the teachers aren't faced with it anymore.
