On abortion, why is the government involved in making it illegal or difficult to get? So the "church" can have the government enforcing its will. Who is the separation of church & state getting in the way of? The church that wants to control government or the government that wants the church to deliver a monolithic block of votes? These get togethers with the GOP'ers and the evangelicals. A pair of predators eying one another.

Belief in any religion requires a leap of faith, a point where the illogical, the nonsensical and the horribly abusive are blindly accepted as ""Taking the good with the bad.". People have been unjustly oppressed, tortured and killed because of this for millennia. Because a "loving God" decreed it to be so...... Or, at least that's how the priests and prophets interpreted it after consulting with golden calves, rooster entrails, the voices in their heads and flaming shrubberies.
That's how I see the purpose of the Church/State Separation and believe it must stay firmly in place....... It's really a wall between the Michelle Bachmanns, the Marjorie Taylor Greens, the Kenneth Copelands of this world and the rest of us who just want to be left the f**k alone.
