It's because what is legislated are the beliefs of people.

Again, this from a debate Mall and I just had. 

It was actually a really short debate, so if Mall would like I would do an extension of this debate. 

I argue that there are more criterion to a religion than just believing something.

I live in a 1.4B people country that advocates for no religion. Do you not understand the concept of a secular nation?

On top of that, separating the "church" from the state is especially easy if we just build Mosques over them. Or if we take Le Corbusier's plans to action.

Yes even secular people have religion, atheists and theists alike. Now people that say separate religion from whatever, they have a particular religion or religions in mind so that their religion can be in place.

Again, what is legislated are what people believe in, not anything they don't.

That's what many don't get and I know they won't when it comes to this topic.
