>but for instance law makers can still use their papist or Mohammedan values when writing or voting for a law.

Most likely Baptist, Presbyterian, or Evangelical values. Just remember most domestic terrorists identify as protestant evangelicals. And it's Islamic, not Mohammedan. Unless you somehow gravitate towards the early 20th century.

I would expect any person to be guided by their values, be them religious or not. It's when they expect their religious dogma to become part of law that's an issue.

Number one, the separation of church and state isn't an idea, it's the first line in the First amendment.

Number two: the article I posted the link was warning about Christian nationalists. I'm not advocating for a Christian theocracy, I'm concerned people too stupid for their own good think we can have one here. I'm all for a secular government and the free practice of one's faith. God has no business in government, and government has no business in religion, as long as that religion doesn't deprive anyone of their rights.
