I see a concerned group of Christians trying to associate together to exert some political power.

Chalcedon--the foundation behind this movement--explicitly believes that non-Christians (and I am not a "Christian" by their reckoning, as I am a Catholic) should be legally prohibited from voting, running for office, or otherwise engaging in any aspect of political life.

The Constitution's prohibition on religious tests for public office is anathema to them.

Is that a fact?

I surf over to their site quite a bit, though I am not Dominionist. I have never heard them say that all Catholics are non-Christians.

Really? I read through the links provided, and I didn't see that anywhere! I must admit that I didn't actually "get"all of it. Have you some reference anywhere that I can find that? Very curious about this.
