I really wish more people understood that the separation of church and state exists as much for the protection of the CHURCH as for the "state."

Do you really want any given party who may be in office to have legal authority to tell you how YOU and YOUR church should be conducting worship, regardless of whether their edicts align with your sincerely held beliefs? Because if you trust the government to be your priest or pastor, then fine, you're cool with a theocracy.

But if you DON'T trust any given politician to decide how YOU should worship your God, then you should absolutely be in favor of the separation of church and state.
