Definitely, I didn't mention the US at all, but at least the US doesn't have blasphemy laws, for example.

True. And yet despite that, Christianity seems to be a litmus test for being President in the US.

Yes, I do. The US is not a theocracy, it's a secular republic. A person's religion should no more qualify them for office than their race or gender.

See the letters between Jefferson and the Danbury Baptists. Who were the Danbury Baptists worried about? Muslims? Jews? Atheists? The local Congregationalist Christians.
