God vs the Constitution

Please show where we are taught by Christ or his apostles to stick God in a closet and only let him out on Sunday.

And let me guess... we're to be subject to YOUR interpretation of God's Law. Why not the Hasidic? Why not Conservative Judaism? Why not Catholicism's interpretation? This leaves us on a sea of subjective human interpretation regarding the divine mind.

In other words, nobody can know what the Bible teaches for sure. We're just all floating on a sea of subjective human interpretations. Kind of like your interpretation that nations and societies should not be governed by the Word of God. That's just YOUR interpretation. It's all relative, now, isn't it? 'Don't tell me what the Bible says, it's just YOUR subjective human interpretation!'
