If we have separation of church and state why does it matter what religion our president belongs to?

OpinionSome see separation of church and state as only nominal, and hope that a future president will enact laws and regulations, and appoint judges, so as to further the interests of one group over those of another, perhaps even regardless of constitutional restrictions and legal precedents.

There has never been a genuine separation of church and state. The fallacy that there is a separation was done in a clandestine attempt to shield the political and religious leaders from social upheavals. The church has always created beliefs to keep their followers loyal to the state. The state in turn has always propagated the church. Most of the laws in the country are determined by the scriptural morality of the church.
