Thomas Jefferson also explicitly stated that Hinduism and Islam and other "foreign" faiths were protected religions under the 1st Amendment. So did Richard Henry Lee. So does the historical record of the North Carolina ratifying convention. And, last but not least, so did James Madison. Roy Moore disagrees. Do you?

I do agree that all faiths are protected in the United States. I think Roy Moore would also agree. A principle of Christianity is loving protection from harm. Other religions can practice and meet and speak free from harm in our country. But it would be silly to put up a monument to Buddha in the courthouse and try to make a case for Buddhist principles being integral to the history of our legal system.
