You are just wrong.

Multiple states HAD RELIGIOUS TESTS that were ruled constitutional!

This was well after the Constitution was adopted.

Look it up.

The Constitutional principles involved here are obvious.
ALL officials, Fed/State/Local were bound to honor our Constitution, and NO religious tests were to be used to qualify them for ANY office.

Show me your proofs.
