Abraham Lincoln would disagree.
So would you apply a religious test to other government positions? The Constitution explicitly prohibits a religious test for gov’t offices and it is clear the spirit of the law would apply to members of the military.

No it doesn't. The Constitution guarantees freedom of religion. It is the first right guaranteed in the first Amendment. The Constitution was written and inspired by the written word and principles of the Judeo/Christian God. If people do not like our Constitution or the God who's principles this nation was founded on then you all are free to leave. Trying to insure that this nation become like all the third world nations that are founded on either secular principles or the principles of false gods (satan's principles) is bs. We have been the greatest nation on earth for over a century because of our Christian values NOT despite them. If a non-believing government employee cannot insure my freedom to worship the God of my choice then he/she needs to be removed from office posthaste. This is why every oath of office until recently has always insisted that people put their hands on the bible and say at the end of whichever oath they are taking, "So help me God."
I know atheists get all butt hurt and all when the reality of the situation is exposed to them but know this, if God haters have their way this country is finished as evidenced by their continued whining and successes in removing God from public debate.
Look around. Our economy is tanking. Our planet is convulsing. Our souls are empty and hatred permeates every aspect of our culture.
