Secularism In America

Secularism, in fact, was the necessary condition for the existence of numerous religious communities in America. It was not possible for all religions to be established as official religions of the state, nor could a single religion be, because all religions had accepted diversity and had left Europe because of the lack of such diversity. In fact, the separation between Church and State was made only for religious men, so those who are not religious (secularists) could not implement the government. This idea came to strengthen the vital role religion plays in American politics, because if there were no religion threat in America, the state would not establish the secular system. The latter, that is to say, was good for religion in general (Waldman:192).
