content: Having grown up in the sticks I can tell you that A LOT of conservatives believe that the intention of "freedom of religion" is freedom to practice whatever sect of Christianity (+Judaism) you choose; abstaining from any other religion. This is because the puritans came over to practice their version of Christianity as they were being persecuted by other Christians in Europe. (Never mind the fact that the founders indeed wrote about Muslims, Hindu, etc... at the time.)
