Answer:
In the USA, there is no amendment. Many have interpreted this to be 'implied' in the 1st Amendment:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
-- The First Amendment
Those who see a 'wall of separation' get here by reading one of Thomas Jefferson's letters (3rd President). There is also a statement from another founder, James Madison, called the Father of the US Constitution and 4th President of the USA.
