Separation of Church and State?

        In the United States we have a separation of Church and State in our constitution. Or do we? We are promised that we have a freedom to practice our religion  and that it will not be infringed upon. Lets look at that first. We are not allowed to have outward displays of our religion in many places today. Many businesses require their employees to say "Happy Holiday" instead of "Merry Christmas". No prayer in school. A teacher cant lead a group of Christians in prayer, Yesterday a governor was publically admonished for promoting a faith rally for other christians. Christians are attacked by many secular groups constantly and anytime they get a chance.  I see that as our rights are infringed upon.

        The Separation of Church and State:  Now this is not how most people consider  it. This is not a constitutional right nor was it intended to be.. This was from a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote in reply to a concern by a church that the government would take over that church.. He wrote back that there was a separation in church and state. Otherwise the government was not and did not intend on getting into the business of running a church. Many Secular groups use this to suit their needs and even claim its constitutional. They use the NLP. If you say it enough people will believe it. But that does not make it so.
