Create a Constitutional Amendment Formally Establishing Separation of Church & State

With the recent passage of Indiana's RFRA law and similar laws in other states that intend to legalize discrimination and expand exemption of due process to anyone claiming a religious exemption, it has become clear that a dangerous segment of our society is determined to create a theocracy placing religion above civil law. While we believe the Separation of Church & State is already inherent in the wording and spirit of the Constitution of the United States, it is clear that at this point in our history, we need a constitutional amendment clearly defining and formalizing this important American concept. The Separation of Church & State Amendment will apply to both federal and state governments, prohibiting religious affiliation, practices, or views from taking precedence over civil laws.
