We are often told that religion is divisive and ought to be kept away from politics, and that religious liberty means a strict separation of church and state. But that view is out of tune with America's Founders, who advanced religious liberty in a way that would uphold religion and morality and indispensable supports of good habits and the great pillars of human happiness.
