@michaelbriganti I have an education in law. You have an "edumacashun" in misinformation. I'll try to make it really, really, really simple for you:
1. No right is absolute. Every right is inextricably entwined with RESPONSIBILITY, which LIMITS the exercise of rights because one DOES NOT have the right to violate OTHERS' rights.
2. The First Amendment SEPARATES "religion" from gov't. One has the right to choose whatever religion" one wants -- which includes the corollary right to be FREE of "religions" one DOES NOT choose.
Thus one ALSO has the right to choose NO "religion".
And this is how the Founders established that separation of "religion" and gov't:
___
From the North Carolina constitution adopted on December 18, 1776:
"XXXI. That no clergyman, or preacher of the gospel, of any denomination, shall be capable of being a member of either the Senate, House of Commons, or Council of State, while he continues in the exercise of the pastoral function.
. . . .
"XXXIV. That there shall be no establishment of any one religious church or denomination in this State, in preference to any other; neither shall any person, on any pretence whatsoever, be compelled to attend any place of worship contrary to his own faith or judgment, nor be obliged to pay, for the purchase of any glebe, or the building of any house of worship, or for the maintenance of any minister or ministry, contrary to what he believes right, or has voluntarily and personally engaged to perform; but all persons shall be at liberty to exercise their own mode of worship:--_Provided_, That nothing herein contained shall be construed to exempt preachers of treasonous or seditious discourses, from legal trial and punishment."
___
From the constitution of Georgia adopted on February 5, 1777:
"Art. LVI. All persons whatever shall have the free exercise of their religion; provided it be not repugnant to the peace and safety of the State; and shall not, unless by consent, support any teacher or teachers except those of their own profession."
"Art. LXII. No clergyman of any denomination shall be allowed a seat in the legislature."
___
From New York constitution adopted on April 20. 1777:
XXXIX. And whereas the ministers of the gospel are, by their profession, dedicated to the service of God and the care of souls, and ought not to be diverted from the great duties of their function; therefore, no minister of the gospel, or priest of any denomination whatsoever, shall, at any time hereafter, under any pretence or description whatever, be eligible to, or capable of holding, any civil or military office or place within this State.
___
Those provisions, and their equivalents in other state constitutions, eventuated in the First Amendment separation of "religion" and gov't.
That's how the separation of "religion" and gov't works. Everyone has the same rights -- and the right NOT to have their rights violated by law-illiterate/rejecting bullies.

@JLB-s4q It has nothing to do with length of time on the Court. It has to do with Justices ATTACKING the rule of law AGAINST the Constitution itself.
1. The January 6th attack was, as defined IN LAW, an INSURRECTION.
2. Alito obviously knew that the inverted flag was a symbol for the BASELESS ""Stop the Steal" "movement". Judges are required to know and rule on FACTS AND LAW. Where there is NO evidence, one does not pretend there is.
3. Judges, and especially Supreme Court Justices, are REQUIRED to READ and UNDERSTAND the Constitution -- and it is right there in the Constitution that insurrections are PROHIBITED:
"Art. I., S. 8., c. 15. The CONGRESS shall have Power To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute [ENFORCE] the Laws of the Union [which begins with the CONSTITUTION], SUPPRESS INSURRECTIONS, and repel Invasions."
4. Alito was CLEARLY AND OBVIOUSLY siding with the INSURRECTIONISTS -- which the Founders charged with, prosecuted for, and convicted of, TREASON, and sentenced to DEATH -- AGAINST the Constitution itself.

The Founders used the well-regulated Militia, under their Commander-in-Chief, to suppress insurrections.
The Founders charged insurrectionists with, prosecuted them for, and convicted them of, TREASON -- and sentenced them to DEATH.
See "Shays's" and "Whiskey" insurrection court cases.
The Constitution expressly PROHIBITS political violence --
"Art. I., S. 8., C. 15. The CONGRESS shall have Power To provide for calling out the Militia to execute [ENFORCE] the Laws of the Union, SUPPRESS INSURRECTIONS, and repel Invasions.
And in the First Amendment:
"Congress shall make no law . . . abridging . . . the right of the people PEACEABLY to assemble".
Art II, S. 2 stipulates that the President is the Commander-in-Chief of the Militia. Though Congress has the authority to regulate the well-regulated Militia, neither the Speaker of the House nor the former UN ambassador, who was a private citizen on January 6th, has the authority to call out the Militia -- Trump's LIES on the point notwithstanding.
Nor is the president the "boss" of Congress -- he has no authority over Congress, so cannot "order" or "direct" that separate branch of gov't to do or not do anything.
