“As you know, the separation of church and state is not subject to discussion or alteration. Under our Constitution no church or religion can be supported by the U.S. Government. We maintain freedom of religion so that an American can either worship in the church of his choice or choose to go to no church at all.” KnowsStatesGovernmentChoicesChurchSubjectsWorshipConstitutionSeparationPresidentialDiscussionChurch And StateSeparation Of Church And StateFreedom Of ReligionAlterations Author:Richard M.

“Last year I was on Pat Robertson's show, and we discussed our basic Christian faith - for instance, separation of church and state. It's contrary to my beliefs to try to exalt Christianity as having some sort of preferential status in the United States. That violates the Constitution. I'm not in favor of mandatory prayer in school or of using public funds to finance religious education.” TryingYearsStatesShowsSchoolChristianLastsBeliefChurchReligiousPrayerUnitedChristianityUnited StatesConstitutionContraryFavorsSeparationFinanceInstancePresidentialFundLast YearChurch And StateSeparation Of Church And StateChristian FaithReligious EducationPrayer In School Author:Jimmy Carter
