Religion has to do with how you should live your life. Politics has to do with governing people and is constantly changing. Most religions are resistent to change because they are usually based on supposed truths that should be followed above all else.

It can and does; however in the United States, the state cannot establish religion in the public sphere.

Example: Public schools cannot mandate prayers in the classroom, nor can they coerce a student to recite the pledge of allegiance (because it mentions God).

Religion and politics can most definitely coexist as long as you draw a boundary between politics and your beliefs/standards. For example, say you are looking to vote for president in this upcoming year. You would have to choose between two different ways of living life. One being more conservative, and the other not as conservative. More innovative, per say. You must choose the way that corresponds and fits into your belief system and standards.

Hope this helped :) <3

Organized religion and organized politics are very much alike. Both seek to control their social environment. They do this by appealing to individuals to put aside their own best interests for the best interests of the organizations hierarchy. Neither care about the fate of the individual as long as they drain the individual's time and wealth into their own coffers.
