Separation of church and state means:
The state does not get to dictate the practice of one's religious beliefs.
The early settlers were trying to exclude whoever was king from telling them what to believe and how to believe. However, this does not exclude people from establishing a government with religious people and implementing laws that reflect their religious values.
Which anti-gay laws are you talking about?
NOBODY CARES WHAT GAY PEOPLE DO WITH THEIR LIVES. PEOPLE JUST DON'T WANT TO BE FORCED TO PARTICIPATE IN ACTIVITIES/CAUSES THAT PROMOTE HOMOSEXUALITY.
Again, no point in talking to unreasonable leftist liberals. They can't see past their feelings.
Keep your YEXUS guy to yourself
And hateful homophobic church teachings to yourself
We don’t believe in your god
Your teaching and beliefs hurt othersTRUTH HURT BUT YEAH
Jefferson when he wrote it
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties."[1]
