If the State is your religion, and something you swear fealty to, any apostasy from that religion is punishable by death.

(You think I'm joking)

No, I don't. I've often noted the irony that for many of the people who yammer on the most about the need for separation between church and state, their church is the state. It's not that they respect freedom of conscience so much as they don't like their god having competition.
