I don’t believe in many Catholic beliefs and don’t believe that Christianity should be represented on the Supreme Court even mostly by Roman Catholicism.

You don't see the irony in having a religious test to determine who should be interpreting the Constitution that says "no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States." (Article VI)?

From the responses here, many people have to come to understand what the actual “no religious test” clause means, or they have to apply what they know. It’s concerning to read such responses because apparently those giving them won’t be able to answer atheists on similar topics.

This is NOT any sort of violation of “no religious test.” I hope that evangelicals will start to contact Republicans and let them know that while some conservative Catholics are acceptable, differences remain & matter, and there should be some evangelicals on the SC. Now, if there was something “unconstitutional” going on, it could actually be taken to court, not only criticized on a web site! Where is there any violation about this thread or what it suggests that you can take to court?
