There's no religious test in our country, and there shouldn't be. We're an open, competitive society.
The idea we would create some kind of religious test for entry into the country is absolutely wrong.
The test of every religious, political, or educational system is the man that it forms.
The Constitution provides for freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.
The Constitution says that government isn't supposed to be infusing religion into our society, and so I asked to have that upheld.

Christianity is a very historical religion - it makes specific claims that are open to testing.
