Here in the USA, we deliberately separated religion from government. Why? Because the early settlers here were escaping from religious persecution in England. Sadly, now, we're heading toward a conflict between Christian sects in this country. How soon we forget.

And never mind our attitude toward non-Christian religious groups. We hate them all, it seems. All. We even hate other Christians who don't worship the same as we do.

Why can we not dispense with that superstitious nonsense?
