Any religious person may run for office, or behave in a religious
manner in matters of politics. As long as the Fed doesn't create a
church or denomination (such as the Church of England).
requiring those that are irreligious, non-religious or even non-xian
to be involuntarily exposed to xianity is defacto a state church
Er, no. First, you've got to establish who exactly IS a Christian. I know
that Southern Baptists do not consider Mexican Catholics to be Christians. A
near-majority of non-Mormons don't think the Mormon Church is a Christian
entity. And so on.
I can't imagine getting anywhere close to unanimity on the definition.
Without a firm test, you're doomed.
if you believe in christ you are a xian. you may not like how the Mexican
Catholics, Southern Baptists or Mormons approach their worship, but they are all
praying to the same god
