As Bruce points out, religion is about faith. I guess many people have trouble with the concept of other people having faith in other things. Religious fervour is a problem in many ways, but in others it can be good.

I think that's important to remember when it comes to arguments like these that even though religion and government should be separate, religion serves a great purpose to many people.

No, I advocate the complete separation of church and state.
If you want your kid exposed to religion in school, send them to a private school of your religious background.
But, if one is allowed into the schools, all must be equally.
I don't care what someone believes, I only care how they act upon their beliefs.
