Separation of Church and State

政教分离

美国的基督教会素有free church之美誉。欧洲诸国的历史上,常有执政者把特定的教派教会定为State Church(国教会),对其他的教派进行迫害。美国的教会是彻底和政权分离的。根据合众国宪法第一修正条项,禁止制定一切树立国教的法律条规。

让我们来看报刊实例
But I want them to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's. I want the separation of church and state to continue, even through the muddy waters of this present time.(St.Petersburg Times)

但是,应该把凯萨的东西还给凯撒,神的东西还给神。即使在像现在这样的肮脏的政治现状,我希望政教分离持续下去。----- render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things 将另行解说。
