"Estoy completamente a favor de la separación de la Iglesia y el Estado. Mi idea es que estas dos instituciones nos fastidian lo suficiente por sí solas, así que ambas juntas es muerte segura."
— George Carlin
Simplified Meaning:
The speaker believes that religion and government should stay separate. They think both can cause problems individually, and mixing them would make things even worse. For example, consider a town where the mayor tries to pass laws based on his religious beliefs. People who don't share those beliefs may feel unfairly treated, leading to conflicts. By keeping government decisions separate from religious rules, everyone can feel included and respected. This advice helps ensure a fair society where personal beliefs don't dictate public policy.
