While this is technically true, these laws are also all unconstitutional.

Torcaso v Watkins
Cites the 1st and 14th amendments in the ruling for Torcaso

Silverman v Campbell
Cites the 1st amendment and article VI, paragraph 3 prohibiting religious tests for public office in the ruling for Silverman
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
