Answer 2

Thomas Paine's sign-off in Common Sense answered any objections that he was making an "ungodly" argument against the "God-ordained" monarchy of England, by asserting that good Christians will also believe that church and state need to be kept separate.

An old idea about monarchy, against which thinkers like Thomas Paine were reacting, was that a king ruled by "divine right."  This idea asserted that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  Early Enlightenment philosopher John Locke had repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his First Treatise on Civil Government., and Thomas Paine had done some of the same in Common Sense in the section of the pamphlet, "Of Monarchy and Hereditary Succession."   Paine's sign-off showed that he was not irreligious or against God, but that the English had overdone their position by trying to mingle religion and politics and claim God's backing for all that the royal government did.  

Here are the words of Paine's sign-off in Common Sense:

• And here without anger or resentment I bid you farewell. Sincerely wishing, that as men and Christians, ye may always fully and uninterruptedly enjoy every civil and  religious right; and be, in your turn, the means of securing it to others; but that the  example which ye have unwisely set, of mingling religion with politics, may be  disavowed and reprobated by every inhabitant of AMERICA.
