Summary

This quote emphasizes the need for the government to adopt an impartial stance when it comes to religion. It suggests that the government should neither support nor favor any particular religion, but instead maintain a neutral position.

By being neutral, the government can promote equal treatment, protect religious freedom, and avoid any potential discrimination or favoritism based on religious beliefs.
