The ideal relationship between politics and religion is one where they generally don’t interfere with each other.

It’s fine if, for example, the government opposes an issue that anyone would find angering, such as starting an unreasonable war or repressing workers, regardless of political ideology.

But once religion starts involving itself in political beliefs and intervening in matters of state, it inevitably becomes corrupted.

However, the reality is always harsh, and the world is often in a miserable state.
