"FACT - Separation of church and state is a doctrine created legally in the USA by the McCollum opinion. That was in 1947-8.
FACT - The opinion was written by a Klansman"
O RLY...? (emphasis added):

'"Separation of church and state" (sometimes "wall of separation between church and state") is a phrase used by Thomas Jefferson (in his 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptists) and others expressing an understanding of the intent and function of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. The phrase has since been repeatedly cited by the Supreme Court of the United States.
The First Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ...."
You FAIL.
"FACT - The McCollum opinion is the touchstone of the left's legal case for eradicating God from the public arena"
No, it was Thomas Jefferson, one of your country's Founding Fathers, who drew up what would become the basis of your country and it's rule of law (Remember why people left my country, the UK, and went to the New World...? Because of the UK having a state religion, the Church of England, and their opposition to such). You FAIL II.
"FACT - Anyone who supports McCollum and its descendant doctrines is in complete and utter agreement with a Klansman"
Even the most liberal Democrat-voting person in your country would say that anyone who goes against what messrs. Jefferson et al laid down in the Constitution is in complete and utter agreement with Nazi Dominionist fundies, and therefore is an UnAmerican traitor.
You FAIL III, and have struck out, Derpides.
It really says so much about a country, when more people outside it know more about it's own Consatitution than a sizeable proportion of that country's own citizens.
To paraphrase the classic quote from the film "A Few Good Men": 'Facts? You can't handle the facts!'
@Swede
"FACT =/= Perphides' personal opinion"
And here's what The Dude would say to Derpides:
