I think these are red herrings. No one here is taking about burning witches etc or bringng back the Mayan human sacrifices or the Hindu ritual of bride setee.

It is an indisputable fact that the nation was founded on Biblical principles. The whole purpose was that there be no “coercive” beliefs, hence we have the Free Exercise of Religion Clause.

For all the quotes from Jefferson, don’t forget that as President he attended religious services held in the Halls of Congress! Actions speak louder than words.
