Romania. And no, it's not a Catholic or Orthodox (i.e. Christian) school, it is a PUBLIC school - a school where ordinary people send their kids to, unless they've got money and find a costly private school for them instead, that is.
No separation of church and state in Romania?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Of course there is.
I mean, if you call things such as having the Patriarch bless the President in the Parliament a separation between church and state, then sure, there is.
Or, clergy telling to the wide public what political party to vote, or which not to vote.
I think, generally, you get as much separation between church and state as the people believe they require.

They don't call it "abuse." They call it fucking jesus love.

You're a sensible man. There's no point in staying with the Church if you can't get the deluxe package deal.

There was also a video, maybe from a year ago. When it was the time in our country to vote for mayors, there was a particular case with a village or town, don't remember well, where they voted for someone who had been at the time in jail. And this guy won the elections. So, the people, seeing that their to-be-mayor could not enter the town hall, because he was imprisoned, they went to the police station and shouted for him to be released. At the later parts of the recording, they were singing together loudly the Lord's Prayer. I had found it funny - outstanding actually - how religious Christians could pray in unison "Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come..." to enforce their request, because they wanted him to be their mayor, and for him to be released.
