Islam is less religion and more MS-13. It deserves no protection.

Now the left is going to shred a black man because he is not towing (or toeing) the party line.

Race means nothing to them. It’s all ideology.

I'm sorry, but if the Founders believed Muslims should not serve in our Government, they'd have put it in the Constitution. Indeed, they DID insert this little phrase:

... ; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.

As this article from the Heritage Institute discusses,

The clause was hotly disputed in some states during the 1788–1789 struggle over ratification of the Constitution. The objection was simple: "Jews," "Turks," "infidels," "heathens," and even "Roman Catholics" might hold national office under the proposed Constitution.

If you ban one religion without an Amendment, then all bets are off. It's simply then a matter of time before the next Dem president (it'll happen, some day) or Admin or Legislature will ban followers of Christianity, Judaism, or mandate atheism.

It's also worth noting that in support of there not being an oath, per the article one of the Founders said:

"The people may employ any wise or good citizen in the execution of the various duties of the government."

On that front, if he was a citizen, I may be more willing to vote for the 83-year-old Muslim cleric being honored by the US Government, who hid 262 Christians in his home and mosque during an attack in central Nigeria than CINO Nancy Pelosi.

Our side prides itself as the Rule of Law side...it's the liberals who twist and lie their way to things like Roe, and more recently that the Second Amendment is not a guarantee of the right of the citizenry to keep and bear arms. Let's not become stupid like the left.

The suburban woman voters do not get this. They believe in the Gospel according to Oprah.

If those in the government are to defend the Constitution against all enemies and Muslims want to destroy the Constitution and replace it with Sharia Law by command of their Prophet what is that?

When they see her on the other side they’ll know her.
She’ll be the one handing out free pitchforks.

What a stupid comment...

It was not aimed at informed people; it was aimed at stupid people, such as the liberal legislators of the UK and US.

Can Nazi’s serve in the American government? That answer to that is the same as the question about mudslims.

Then I guess nothing prevents Muslims from serving if elected.

If the government can define Social Security as income, ketchup as a vegetable, and any number of rediculous things, certainly it can define islam as an ideology akin to naziism and not a religion.

"Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?” - James Madison

If government gets into the business of deciding what is a religion and what is not, or what is a favored religion and what is not, then what is to prevent some future Democrat administration from defining evangelical Christianity as an ideology and not a religion?
