Correction-- US Constitution as interpreted by the corrupt and Ignorant would seem to protect Muslims if
their claims could be proven a part of their religion.
Problem is there is ample evidence that supports the idea
that the founders interpreted "religion" as defined by
Webster in his An American Dictionary of the English Language ,1828 to mean ,primarily,Christian religion.

It's a good thing if the founders said "religion" and meant "Christianity"; my point is that even if they didn't, they should have. Minority religions may be tolerated but they do not have a claim on the public square in the same way as the dominant religion has.
