The separation of church and state refers to creation of a state sponsored religion or official religion. It does not prohibit various interactions between governmental agencies and independent religious organizations. Unfortunately political correctness has bred a climate of inappropriate reaction. Oh, and it's not the law. For example schools are allowed to offer space for Sunday church, under the same rules allowed for other organizations...unless a state or other governmental entity has precluded such by policy or legislation.
