Why Church & State should be seperated (DeAunte)

Why should Church and State be separate? Church and State should be separate because people would be offended because not all people are religious. Just keep it on a level to where everyone feels comfortable and could express their beliefs with out being offended. In the United States, we all have the freedom of religion but yet some people use that to their advantage and use it the wrong way. For example, schools students use to say the Lords prayer. But what about everyone else that goes to that school, you never know it could be someone that is Muslim or has a different belief. They could get offended and would have a problem with saying the Lords prayer. The reason why they are offended is because we have the right of religion but it’s being used the wrong way. Basically, the focus would be on Christianity and not on the other students and their beliefs. Many schools have students who are Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, and even Jewish. Not all of these beliefs all belief in just Christ. That’s why we have to keep Religion and Government at a distance. Our country has more than one type of religion it’s a diversity of them. One thing about our society is that we are all equal, and that this is not a theocracy this is a democracy we the people decide what we want for our country this is not ran by a certain religion. That’s why I think that the government and religion should be separate.
