Separation of church and state

This is important. We shouldn't be so ignorant to think that Christ will be always exempt from our societal ideas of 'fringe' religion. We may someday be the ones asked to take off our crosses, unless we build a society now that tolerates and fosters *all* religious expressions (obviously, that aren't abusive of their members).

"The ideal of society where no visible public signs of religion would be seen -- no crosses around necks, no sidelocks, turbans or veils -- is a politically dangerous one. It assumes that what comes first in society is the central political 'licensing authority,' which has all the resource it needs to create a workable public morality."

- Archbishop of Canterbury
