The church is not the master of the state, nor the servant of the state, but the conscience of the state.

-- Martin Luther King Jr., advocating the separation of religion from government, as quoted from Kenny Byrd, "Bush unveils faith-based initiative; critics raise church-state questions," issued by the Baptist Joint Committee (early 2001)
