Speration of church and state, not religion and state, please get it straight. The church SHOULD NOT RUN THE GOVERNMENT! That is both bad for the church, the people, and the government. Neither should the government run a church.

Separation of church and state is a myth. Go read the first amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;"
Get that last part? The states, local schools, etc. can do what the people want. The federal government should have no involvement in matters of local government and local school districts. It's only Congress that cannot make laws establishing or prohibiting religion. If anything, your statement actually violates the first amendment. You want Congress to pass laws preventing the free exercise of religion.
