That's a great, deep, profound question. And I'd say, if the constitution and a religious doctrine are at odds, we have to use the constitution as a guide. I'd hate to see a law that says you have to say the rosary, for example.
Although...there was a time when our laws allowed for slavery and segregation...the people leading the charge against those evil institutions, were motivated by Christianity.
