You are claiming that the reason for eliminating the constitutional requirement for christians from a federal constitution had nothing to do with the various states different denominations?

No. I'm saying that in the Federalist papers and other writings of the most prominent federal constitution's contributors, Virginia was considered to be the most ideal. Why? Because it placed the most articulate limitations on government power to sponsor and support religions by sect or dogma.
