Please inform yourself of the Christian tradition of the founding of this country. Here is an example from the Massachusetts charter,which declared that one of the "principle ends of the plantation" was to enable all, citizens and officers included, to acknowledge the Christian faith and to pass it along in a peaceable and orderly way to the natives of the country.

...whereby our said People, Inhabitants there, may be soe religiously, peaceablie, and civilly governed, as their good Life and orderlie Conversation, maie wynn and incite the Natives of Country, to the Knowledg and Obedience of the onlie true God and Savior of Mankinde, and the Christian Fayth, which in our Royall Intention, and the Adventurers free Profession, is the principall Ende of this Plantation.
--Charter Of Massachusetts Bay (1629)

If you're arguing that the Charter of Massachusetts Bay has the force of law in this matter, then this excerpt from the same paragraph you quoted is of interest:

from tyme to tyme, to make, ordeine, and establishe all Manner of wholesome and reasonable Orders, Lawes, Statutes, and Ordinances, Directions, and Instructions, not contrairie to the Lawes of this our Realme of England

Hmm.
