Why? Oh... maybe because the Fundie Christian Right Wing has a metric buttload of bucks that they are willing to spread far and wide in support of what *they* know to be 'The Greater Good and Godly Way' and TV/newspapers/publishing people/etc. are in terror of losing their cut of that metric buttload. The non-JeudoChristian faiths, at least in this country, do not tend to have a lot of bucks so our voices get drowned out.

So the "freedom of religion" as stated in the Constitution

Should be read, "some religions are more equal than others".
A slippery slope, a slippery slope

That is how they want it interpreted. Of course with the current SC lineup - you know, the ones that gave freedom of speech status to corporations which has allowed them to buy contribute to political candidates - it is entirely possible that said SC Justices* will also interpret it that way.

*That is either Ghod being an iron or a conundrum. Or both.
