Separating God from society

My spiritual Father once said, "This is not separation of Church and state; this is the separation of God from society."


Forcing religious faith out of a nation's public square and out of a country's public debates does not serve democracy... What it does do is impose a kind of unofficial state atheism. To put it another way, if we ban Christian Churches or other religious communities from taking an active role in our nation's civic life, we're really just enforcing a new kind of state-sponsored intolerance -- a religion without God.

Oh Lord God, have mercy on us sinners.
