Shafiuddin,

What did islam solve since 1400 years ?

Islam reject such Ideas, because Islam does not recognize any other way of life, because it has a complete solution of the life, whether it would be a politics, economic, social, cultural or any. When you have a belief and recognize other way of life then you have a option to separate state and religion. In order to run any governance you should have faith in real then you will be honest in your job and will not harm the society for peaceful running.

JEWS CLAIMED THAT GOD PROMISES THEM THE LAND, based on this logic the ISRAELIS occupied and encrouched by force the land belonged to the Palestinean, not only grab the land but also continuosly terrorising them for leaving, the world also watching & supports for them for this action. JEWS ALL ACTION TO SATISFY GOD.

"Religion and State, Never. Faith and Poliitcs, Always."

Great. Next time you can find a plurality of American voters who aren't all in a bunch about that kind of distinction being 'elitist,' I'm sure it'll do great by us.

There is a big difference between spirituality and religion. Spirituality doesn’t have any dogma, fiction, or perversion. Spirituality is simply based on everything being connected and part of one body, with One Being behind it all. This is what Jesus A Christ was trying to communicate. It is that simple.

Politics being how various needs and wants are expressed and met or obtained how combined efforts are implemented and what joint ventures are formed and funded. Politics should include the view that we are all one; part of the same body. Religion should not be involved in Politics because it has become perverse in the eyes of the Lord it has become the house of hypocrisy not the House of God.

People have faith in many different things. Socialist have faith in the government's ability to be all things to all people among other things.

Faith and religion are not identical and to state that they are is either a lie or a confession of appalling ignorance.

"One of the darkest ages in the history of the World came about because the political power and religious power were combined."

People seem to have some difficulty understanding that 'political' (ie, divinely-ordained kingship) and 'religious' power played off each other for how long and to what effect and by what means.

It's not taught in schools, to be fair.

I would say that conscience and morals are absolutely necessary when you go to vote and discuss matters of policy, but the key is that a democratic government can never justly institute or favour any religion over its people.

The meaning of the word "state" is pretty simple: it means our government. But "church" and "religion" tend to get confused. Religion is a world view that tells you how to live. A church is a political organization that promotes a particular, non-evolving, world view. If this organization is not identical with the state, it competes with the state. In a democratic state the world view changes periodically by changes in administration and legislation. This is not acceptable in a church whose existence depends on the preservation of a single world view. Therefore, in a democratic state, it is essential that churches of any kind be separate from the state.

Faith? Can you be more specific?
Do you mean faith in a God? Jehova, Allah, what?
Do you mean faith in an idea?
Do you mean faith in yourself?
Who's faith?

We're nearing the end of a faith-based administration lead by a man of supposed great faith.
Faith doesn't work. We need ideas that do work.
Please keep your "faith" to yourself.

Thank you.

"We believe in separation of church and state, but not faith and politics." – this statement is evasive and dishonest. It is meant to give solace to Americans that imagine that they would be happier living in a theocracy.

What happened to separation of church and state?

Do we have to suffer fools who pander to radical Christian theology rather than telling the American people that in order to represent all the people, the Constitution requires political representatives to set aside their particular religious views influence decisions and policy?

Have Americans have become so naive that they are willing to give up a fundamental principle upon which their rights are secured?

Are Americans happy to be ignorant of the differences between religious myth, morality and human rights?

Are Americans no longer capable of the intellectual vigilance required to reject a self-serving theocracy and maintain a constitutional democracy with the goal of equal freedom for all?

Thank God for Separation of Church and State

One of the darkest ages in the history of the World came about because the political power and religious power were combined. From 538 A.D. until 1798 A.D. The Papacy ruled the World and millions were killed. This is a history that the World should never ever want to repeat.

The founding fathers of our country were aware of the Dark Ages and many were fleeing the dark ages and wanted to be sure that what happened during those 1260 years of the Papacy would never be repeated.
