Almost by their nature, no religion can promote a separation of church and state. Practitioners of priestcraft, making their living off duping the credulous, will always be on the lookout to further their power and wealth.
The only time a religion will advocate such a separation is when they are in the minority faith and fear the larger church will use government power as a means of stamping out their competition. When church and state are wed, only one religion gets to be top dog and the rest end up in the same boat with us heathens. However, this alliance of convenience should be recognized for what it is, a temporary state that the minority church will quickly end should it ever become the majority faith.
