Ronald Reagan: We Establish No Religion Quote
"We in the
United States, above all, must remember that lesson [of the Holocaust], for we
were founded as a nation of openness to people of all beliefs. And so we must
remain. Our very unity has been strengthened by our pluralism. We establish no
religion in this country, we command no worship, we mandate no belief, nor will
we ever. Church and state are, and must remain, separate. All are free to
believe or not believe, all are free to practice a faith or not, and those who
believe are free, and should be free, to speak of and act on their
belief."
