the Constitution does NOT establish a separation of Church and State.
The First Amendment says “ Congress shall make NO law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or of the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances “.
What that means is that the government cannot establish a state religion and make people toe the line to it.
This so called Wall of Separation is what causes the TEN COMMANDMENTS to be removed from courthouses, to make cities and towns to remove Nativity scenes from the town squares and causes the removal of religious symbols from various public memorials.
This so called wall was nothing more than correspondence between two individuals in the Federalist Papers; it is not in the Constitution.
If religion was meant to be kept out of our political system in all it’s shapes or forms I am pretty sure it would have been addressed in our founding contract, those guys weren’t stupid when it came to writing a contract.
This so called wall is a creation of the progressive/liberal movement in this country, thrown up to weaken our most revered institutions and give a pass to those scoundrels who refuse to take their oaths seriously.

“Wall of Separation” works both was. If the regime is going to insist in destroying Christianity - like the Mohammedans are doing — then likewise, likewise, they may not cross the wall and interfere in our religious beliefs.

You can’t have it both ways.
