Nothing about a lack of government getting involved in religion keeps people from practicing their faith in this country. Government and religion can both co-exist just fine. There is no good reason for them to intertwine and plenty of bad ones.
Excellent point (which is why I was careful to tiptoe around the topic of polytheists in my arguments).
