Anyway, I don't understand how religion in govt is supposed to work in a country that is a melting pot of cultures.
Whose religion are you going buy? Christianity? Buddhism? Jewish?
You don't need religion to tell you good and bad things.
The US was built upon seperation of church and state. When you cross those, you fall into one of the categories of being a fascist state. Hitler denounced atheism and religion was a big part of his government.
"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord."
How do you draw the line?

No where does it say anything about seperation of church and state. I believe that wording only happened in the Federalist Papers.
When I talk about religous influence, I do not mean 'having a required sunday mass to attend'. That's just dumb.
