"America is one of the most religious countries in the world but it is also one of the most insistent on keeping government and religion separate" ~ Dr Parrish quoting someone else, Tocqueville, I think. It's a conflict that's always going to be present. I realised how difficult it is for the leaders to decide that they would separate church and state, considering that religion has been such an important part of everyone's life. Most if not all of the Ivies are founded to train clergymen, each one associated with a particular religious domination, and that's funded by the government.

Loads of work to do.. work work work
