The Taliban showed what can happen without such a separation.

There should also be separation of corporation and state."


Now one could argue maybe incorrectly though, that the founding fathers
believed in a "separation of church and state."  As far as I am
concerned that argument is already lost, especially when one Senator
Kennedy could accuse someone of not being fit for office because of his
religious views.

But I do think there is absolutely no question that the founding fathers
believed in a separation of school and state.  Or do you really think
the founding Fathers would send their children to King George to get
educated?
