seperation of church and state

wat do u think? does it protect the church from the state or is it the other way around?

That's true. James Madison argued for pluralism in Federalist Papers #10. I'll be willing to bet the Founding Fathers didn't argue for pure secularism, instead they felt that keeping the church and state separate was mutual for both. For the majority of western society I think this approach works out rather well.
