In this case Congress already considered your proposition and passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which puts a hole below the waterline of your thought.

This is the last hurrah of an Administration marked by repeated attempts to void the RFRA by regulation.

Similarly when Congress passed  Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972 it wrote "sex" and meant it. Every attempt to amend the law to read "gender" has been rebuffed and, again, this Administration is trying an end run around the plain English of the law.

This only makes it clear that there was a lot more going on in the last election than "racism", many Christians believed this war on religion would continue and increase.
