The single most facile, reductionist and dangerous example I can think of which conflates church and state is this phrase:
"God-given right to own guns."
The instant people embraced this sentiment as not just normal but immutable, there ceased to be any limit to what they can believe or justify.
Where in the Bible does it reference immutable gun rights for christians?
I am ordained minister with Masters in Comparative Religion and have not uncovered this parable.
Please advise.

It's right there in the U.S. constitution (aka "The American Testament"), which as we all know was written by God.
