I can certainly see that. And the Constitution also says the bit about there being no religious test for officeholders.
I've just had enough debates on what is or is not in the Constitution (and particularly about that specific phrase) that I have to bring it up when I see it. I shudder at the thought of the number of lawyers who cite that phrase. I have on more than one occasion handed a person a copy of the Constitution (the World Almanac usually has it), and told them to find it. :)
