    “no law” is not literal it is aspirational. At least according to what I have heard. If it was literal there could be zero rules about speech which breaks the constitutional ideas of oath of office and treason charges.

    The aspirational would be a government that doesn’t even know religion exists. It is taxed, regulated, and given the same respect as any other institution.
