At the time of American Colonization, much of Europe was ruled by the Catholic church, which determined to be the official religion of the world. Papal influence was felt throughout Europe, and the Roman Catholic church was the ruling faction of many European nations. American colonists wanted free of the tyranny of Papal rule and rejected Papal authority. It was against this threat that the founding fathers decreed there would be no state-sponsored religion. American colonist would be free to choose their own religion, and their own religious practices.
