"Legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between church and State." —Thomas Jefferson Why do you think Thomas Jefferson felt it was important that church and state be kept separate?

OpenStudy (shiburinga):

I think he felt that... he separated them, or wanted them separated, because he didn't want Church rules to affect the regular government/state laws. I think that he thought if government laws were made from the church, the country wouldn't be free.
