This parsing of ‘separation of church and state’ is a literalist distraction.

It’s akin to ‘innocent until proven guilty.’ People always say that but to be correct you have to ‘presume innocence’ until proven guilty, which is different.

However, ‘separation of church and state’ and ‘make no law respecting an establishment of’ is less of a stretch. The are more similar than apart.

it’s all so complicated…just issue me my halo so I can get on with it
