This principle ensures government does not control religion and protects the free exercise of faith. It does not mean excluding faith from the public square.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

HEALTHCARE
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option.

C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
C. Medicaid and Medicare should remain available to those for whom lawmakers had in mind when the programs were created, but broader healthcare should be driven by the private market.
