advantages religious institutions: tax-exempt status, religions can enforce restrictions (such not letting people married in buildings), laws can't made can , can't teach.
advantages state: no established religions, religions can't make rules secular establishments teach, government officials , political platforms can't swayed (legally) religious financial backing, government can make own laws regarding marriage , family issues.
consequences of uniting these entities: religious organizations have pay taxes, religious organizations forced grant marriages or divorces government told them (including gay community, in states allow it), restrictions might put on religious leader allowed teach, religion (catholocism, mormonism, islam, etc..) politicians , political issues having far greater effect on government overall, name few. in all, doesn't work anyone.
