...but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

The actual crusade he's fighting based on his own religious beliefs it is antonymous to the US Constitution, meaning unconstitutional.


And you're not deeply embarrassed to utter such a non sequitur?

Nowhere in the US Constitution is written that the president have to be Catholic or Christian for that matter. Santorum points are irrelevant as far as the religious trend is concerned.

Gingrich, who is also Catholic, claims the right way to put out any controversy: the respect of the Constitution and its First Amendment and Sixth Article.

“Congress shall make NO LAW respecting an establishment of religion, or PROHIBITING the free exercise thereof ....”

Article VI

“NO RELIGIOUS Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.”

Period.
