[QUOTE="justanotherpatriot, post: 1826467, member: 24587"] The post above was courtesy of Wikipedia. As you read through that, you will again see that the prevailing theme is to keep the government unentangled or separate from the free exercise of religion or religious practices. The whole idea and premise that promotes the current definition of "separation of church and state" is a relatively new one dating back to around 1947 as best I can determine. Prior to that, it was not uncommon for religious services, prayer and prayer meetings to be conducted IN CHAMBERS, especially by the founding fathers and their successors. The Ten Commandments being prominently placed in court houses and the Congress, the swearing in of public servants with the Holy Bible, the use of the Holy Bible as a primer and textbook in the original public schools all give evidence to the fact that religion was not only allowed but encourage in multiple areas of government.
