It is so simplistic that it is ingenious.
The govenment cannot make a law RESPECTING an establishment of church.
What does that mean? I am sure a lawyer can come up with a 1001 meanings.
But what it has meant is that no government can make laws putting one religion at supremacy to another. So if you and your fanatics get control of the Congress and Senate...you cannot make a law making your religion the only religion. As a matter of fact you cannot make a law purtaining to ANY religion.
