Pope quiz: How do you separate church and state?

I would ask the pope for his thoughts on the separation of church and state. As a Catholic, my faith instructs me on how I, individually, should act and treat others.

While I might provide counsel and guidance, it does not allow me to force others to live a lifestyle I approve of.
