What is the separation of church and state?

History
1 answer:
daser333 [38]3 years ago
3 0

The separation of church and state overall has to do with freedom of religion. If the government, or the state, preaches and gives attention to one religion, it is not necessarily fair as citizens may be caught up in it, this may lead to other religions not being able to preach freely any longer.

In the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, it stresses the importance of the separation of church and state. This amendment grants freedom of speech, press, and religion on American citizens.

The separation of church and state is important for the freedom and wellbeing of the people. Laws and religious purposes should be held separate to not create disputes and disagreements among the two.

qwelly [4]

While the perpetrator still remains unknown, the US blamed Spain for the explosion, as relations between the two countries were strained over how Spain was mistreating it's colonies in Cuba. This led to the Spanish-American War, which was a US victory that led to the takeover of the Philippines and Cuba from Spain.
