You don't mix church with state AT ALL. Its as simple as that.......Bush and the GOP are ignoring that fundamental law and trying to mix the two. It's not as simple as that, and none of the stuff you posted backs up the position that they can't be mixed "AT ALL". The first phrase "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..." is called the establishment clause. It has been interpreted by the courts as requiring a separation between church and state. That is, the government (and by extension public schools) may not: promote one religion or faith group over any other promote a religiously based life over a secularly based life promote a secularly based life over a religiously based life. How would my example of allowing the government to fund church based AA programs in addition to non-church based AA programs go afoul of any of those three? Brian
