If you read the documents and think about the time period , the Constitution guaranteed that United States citizens could worship the Christian God in any manner in which they choose. It was designed so that Catholics didn't have to worship and join the church of England for example and could decide for themselves which version of Christianity would prevail in thier lives. The government is set up to not impede somebody - it is not intended to mean the absence of. This is evident in every state courthouse, on our money, etcetera etcetera. That understanding has been around since long before this notion of Muslims and other religions are supposed to have an equal voice including atheism.
