Why would a state need to pass a bill that calls out one religion when it would be unconstitutional from any religion?

Personally, I'm far more concerned with the very real fact of states' legislatures passing laws justified by Christianity that strip civil rights from LGBTQ folks or make women's reproductive health care inaccessible.

Not so concerned with this xenophobic imaginary bullshit about Sharia Law.
