Morality is not the exclusive domain of theology. How arrogant must you be to think theology has a monopoly on morality. If the founders felt the government had a place using the power of government to empower religion, they wouldn't have explicitly denied the government that role, and repeatedly made their position clear on the matter.
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 and State
-Thomas Jefferson
Kindly piss off. My government has no business injecting itseld into the domain of religion. Not in denying it, not in supporting it, not in making a space for it, nothing, zero, nada. It passes laws and enforces them. It doesn't decide there needs to be more or less religion in this space or that.

Don't call Thomas Jefferson a retard. I guarantee you he was a smarter more considerate man than you.
Imagine being presented a quote from one of our greatest founders, and being angered by it. Imagine being indistiguishable from a leftist.
