Additionally, recognizing the near total dearth of Literalists in the country, it would be somewhat silly to just have a blanket prohibition on religious candidates for the office, electing a backsliding compromised scripture cherry picking slacker does not seem to advance the cause of religious fealty/piety at all.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
