While the nation's capital was twittering with excitement on Wednesday about former FBI Director James Comey's testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee, something far more outrageous was underway in another Senate hearing: Sen. Bernie Sanders, in a blatant violation of Article VI of the U.S. Constitution, was applying a religious test for an office of public trust.
Specifically, Sanders doesn't think Christians are fit to serve in government because they're bigots. Basic Christian theology, in Sanders's view,
"is indefensible, it is hateful, it is Islamophobic, and it is an insult to over a billion Muslims throughout the world."
