(1) There is no such thing as "separation of church and state" in the Constitution. That phrase came from the time a Pastor wrote a letter to Jefferson expressing his fears that Jefferson would in some way restrict religious freedoms. In response to these fears, Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter back to indicate that he would in no way restrict the freedom of religious expression because he saw a wall of separation between church and state.

So actually the phrase means the exact opposite of what a few claim it means: it re-iterates the First Amendment, that government shall make no laws prohibiting the free exercise of religious expression.

(2) First Amendment: 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; And yet those who reject God demand the government establish its own denomination of Christianity with its own version of marriage. A violation of the First Amendment.

(3) Congress/government also cannnot make a law prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

A school can decide to, for example, put up Ten Commandment displays and no one can force them not to.

A school can decide NOT to put up Ten Commandment displays and no one can force them to.

But in a Christian nation, the populace will be personally choosing to put up Ten Commandment displays often. Those that do not like this can start voting in a large number of people that believe differently and hope it changes.

That's liberty.

That's freedom.

That's the Constitution many died to create.

That's the United States of America.

Start understanding the Constitution, the First Amendment and the lie about "separation to church and state" and take back our right to honor and worship God as people in positions of leadership personally choose and see fit to on a case by case basis. America is under attack by those who hate Christians and Christianity, seeking to eventually ban it from everywhere except in your church, and after that who knows. We need to get back to the truth of God!

2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
