In theory, at least, the 14th amendment extended the US Constitution's protections, which is why no states have established religions any more...

But didn't they stop establishing state religions well before the 14th? Later.

Not many ever had them - I only meant to point out that, because of the 14th Amendment, the Consitution is no longer a restraint on only the Federal government (in theory...)
