The Constitution says that government isn't supposed to be infusing religion into our society, and so I asked to have that upheld.

There's a lot of things I believe in this world. I believe in God, I believe in the United States of America, and I support and believe in the Second Amendment.

I believe in the separation of church and state, absolutely. But I don't believe in the separation of public life from our values, our basic values, and for many of us, our religious values.

The Establishment Clause prohibits government from making adherence to a religion relevant in any way to a person's standing in the political community.

While we have a Constitution that is very strong in the sense that we are not gonna have a religion that's sanctioned by the government, it doesn't mean that we need to have a separation between government and religion.

Government is a true religion: it has its dogmas, its mysteries, its priests. To submit it to the individual discussion is to destroy it; it is given life only through the national mind, that is to say, by political faith, which is a creed.

I choose to worship not believing in God and government should not thrust a religious idea down my throat.

I believe in the separation of church and state, but I do not believe in the separation of politics from religion.

I think the founding fathers believed religion shouldn't interact directly with government.
