Separation was meant to be the government cannot chose what religion is taught or given any favor to any religion by law. It is a peoples choice, NOT the governments. When the government takes control of religion you get something like Roman Catholicism which was MANDATED the religion of Rome and all others were stamped out. Some people in Israel want to make the Jewish religion the ONLY religion in Israel and stamp out all others. The government should not mandate or get involved in peoples choice.
My understanding is that the Catholics are the ones that influenced this amendment. It was their "foot in the door" because this protestant nation was not all happy about them being here.
