When the US government was created (the following is backed up by countless historical documents, look them up and if you disagree, YOU prove ME wrong, and if you do, I will change my tune),
The freedom of religion idea was only for freedom of choice within CHRISTIAN religions?
the founders of this counrty, from all of the 13 colonies, built their state constitutions, as well an these early state constitutions (as states wer allow more autonomy then) had qualifications for public office that REQUIRED the holder of these posts to be CHRISTIAN.
But they stopped at tests that would indicate which 'branch' of christianity. It was not unconstitutional, as they themselves wrote the constitution and sat upon the supreme court and would surely would have struck down anything likely to destroy what they had just fought so hard to create.
whether you like it or not, The US is a CHRISTIAN-BASED country.
To deny it, is to deny the truth
