Uh, yeah. So, to restate in less Constitutional language: The government will not be allowed to make a law that promotes or restricts religion.

How is that not separating church and state? Just because it's easier to say one way than how it's actually worded in the document doesn't make it less true.

I suppose, technically, that means that the Executive or Judicial branch could have policies that support or restrict religion, but I think that's probably outside the spirit of what the amenders were trying to say.
