The Enlightenment included a range of ideas centered on the value of human happiness, the pursuit of knowledge obtained by means of reason and the evidence of the senses, and ideals such as liberty, progress, toleration, fraternity, constitutional government, and separation of church and state.
.
During the Age of Enlightenment, the separation of church and state was the wedge driven between the Roman Catholic Church's dogma
establishment, and control over government ... The same as the it also diminished the control of monarchies, through separation from the idea
that rulers were ordained by God.
The "tolerance" listed ... Was religious tolerance as well.
The conflict was between the Roman Catholic Church and other religions, and how it all tied to governance.
Some of the early settlers here came because they were escaping religious intolerance in Europe.
It wasn't the desire to escape God or religion ...
It included the idea that the government shouldn't reign over
What, Where, When or How a person chooses to Worship.
