From Article VI of the United States Constitution: "The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."

I support the Constitution.

I support the Constitution.

So do I, that applies to CONGRESS, not individual voters. Individual voters and (and should) have a religious test.

BTW, several states had a state religious test after the ratification. Look it up.

If you want to compromise your faith and vote for a cultist - go ahead. I’m not going to stop you.

But don’t tell me how to vote or try to guilt me into voting for a lying, pro-abortion, pro gun control liberal.

Good to hear it.
However that has no baring on an individual.
