Or maybe he means that there is no religious test for office in the United States.

I see we’ve still got some bigots here who don’t understand how important beating Obama is. Those people are idiots.

"Religious tests" per the Constitution apply ONLY to the government attempting to "fence out" given candidates.

If such tests applied to voters, then we would be FORCED to vote for minority religious candidates like Satanists to prove that there's no "religious test" for such a candidate.

How lame.

Religious tests apply only to WHO gets on the ballot; it's not meant to be a dictator forcing you HOW to vote among your choices on that ballot.

You know what's "funny" is that Obama's supposed Muslim ties have been mentioned in hundreds/thousands of FR threads and tens of thousands of FR posts going back to 2007. I've yet to see a single FREEPER bring up the "no religious test for office" to apply to either Islam or Obama's Muslim ties.

How conveniently inconsistent.

(Nor have I seen the self-appointed "bigot patrol" rush into those same threads to accuse posters of engaging in Islamic "bigotry"...more hypocrisy on the loose)
