You are truly a dim bulb.

A religious test is a very narrow term.

Just considering it as a factor does not qualify. Otherwise, our government would have done many, many, many things, especially in the 1800s, that the courts were wrong to uphold because actually they were religious tests.

That's actually up to the Senators to decide I suppose, if it's brought up. Promulgating it as a justification for a nominee is still reprehensible, if not unconstitutional.

When some Jimmy Carter-esque president decides to nominate a thinly-qualified Muslim lawyer/scholar for the simple sake of nominating a Muslim to the USSC, I trust you will have no objections.
