That is true, however THIS country is supposed to have guardrails designed
to contain the worst impulses of the witch's brew of intermixing church and state. One of the underlying motivations of the American Revolution was to free the emerging United States of the monarchy, but of also the relationship of the monarch (the state) with the state religion, or any religion for that matter. As with many of our founding principles, that is now being challenged as well.
So, in blunt words, this country was literally founded on the principle (among others) of keeping separate the spiritual sphere from the temporal sphere, and for damned for good reason.
