Why can't most Christians understand the need for separation of religion and govt?

RE: Why can't most Christians understand the need for separation of religion and govt?
I like that the Republicans are fielding more religious candidates. The know-nothings like Huckabee who take pride in their ignorant principles scare the Wall Street wing of the party. The party is misreading the tea leaves, because those who vote on a religious basis are a dwindling number. By courting them and ignoring Wall Street, the Republicans court electoral loss.

I think Rubio will win the Republican nomination, because 1) he's electable, 2) he's pliant to the will of big business, 3) he's religious without being obnoxious about it, and 4) he will help draw the Latino vote. Bush has a shot as well, for the same reasons (in differing proportions).
