Secularists have created the division by rejecting the teachings of Christ and the Bible. Not sure how you can twist that around, but I'd be interested in seeing your thought process.
Right.. you witnessed slavery first handWhen I grew up, it was religions that made me reject their teachings.
I saw religions promoting slavery, segregation, illegal wars, burning witches, dictating, etc.
It took a lot of reading to understand religions at one time had a higher purpose.
But they have done badly.
What is pure BS is people calling others nutcases simply because of what they believe
By that definition
maybe
just maybe
it is the left who are nutcases? How about this fro an example:
believing that human life begins after 9 months of existence in the womb, therefore you can "terminate" this entity before he or she makes it out of of that environment.
If that is not insane to you... and I'm sure it isn't. ...

You really can't judge the teachings of Christ by the misinterpretations of men. Each of us has to seek the truth as individuals. I don't attend any Church at this time because most of them teach false doctrine. I simply pray to God and read His words for myself. I try to help others in need, and I try to be a good example in my daily walk. I accept those things that are good and reject those things that are evil. I ask God for wisdom and discernment and just live my life as honestly and with as much integrity as I can. I'm far from perfect and, like all men, will continue to make mistakes along the way.When I grew up, it was religions that made me reject their teachings.

Yeah. I've thought this for decades. Our founding fathers and our founding documents are plastered with references to God and religion. If the literal translation was to separate church and state this would not be the case. Lefties take the phrase to mean no God, no religion, keep them out of everything.
This link explains how Americans have gotten things ... shall we say (as Lincoln used to) "bass ackwards"
The state was not to intervene in Churches (unless members therein were committing crimes). Nowhere was it intended or postulated tht the Church could not be involved with the state
By my understanding the "wall of separation" entitled in the famous letter by Thomas Jefferson is that the "Church of Pennsylvania and the Church of Virginia " were at odds with each other and the "United States" government couldn't get involved with an internal Church matter....meaning that the Government had no right to interfere in what we modernly term as a "States rights issue ".

Of course they did. Do you know why? It was because of the history of Europe when countries were aligned with Catholic or Protestant faiths/religions, and they actually fought wars because of that. Our founding fathers didn't want that kind of divisiveness for America.

Actually they did as they wished to avoid what they just left in regards to the Church of England. It was by design that church and state were not intertwined.
The 1st Amendment guarantee of freedom of religion was intended to keep the Government out of the business of churches (and synagogues and temples, etc) and denying those religious entities from having a lawful say in government and laws.

That is only because you belong to the majority.
What if you were Hindi, Moslem, Bhuddist, Zoroastrian, etc.?
And as a Christian, you should be against all laws that impose without defending anyone else, like Prohibition, the War on Drugs, etc.
You should also have been against all wars that were not defensive, which is all wars since 1812.
