Church / State Separation Week ~ November 24-28 "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." The First Amendment of the US Constitution A holiday inspired by the invaluable work of organizations like Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, the Institute for First Amendment Studies and many others, the Church / State Separation Week offers concerned and active citizens an opportunity to educate others about the importance of this subject. The Freedom From Religion Foundation and the American Atheists have declared the week during Thanksgiving holiday (~November 24) a national event for the Separation of Church and State. Although upheld each and every day and celebrated every waking moment, alongside other hallmarks of liberty, this annual holiday will provide a platform to rally the troupes and celebrate one of democracy's finest contributions to civilization. Other countries and groups are invited to participate as well - the Institute for the Secularization of Islamic Society, for instance, and other peoples united for a secular government.
