There is no such thing as separation of church and state in the Constitution or any of its amendments. The first amendment prohibits only two things with regard to religion: 1) the establishment of an official national or (since the 14th amendment) state religion and; 2) any law that prohibits the free exercise of religion. In other words, government may not establish an official religion and may not, in any way, put restrictions on the free exercise of religion.
