In America, some christian religions want more and more rights and want to take away the rights of other religions and people that don't practice their religion. They feel that is what the founding fathers wanted when forming this country so it is OK to do this. This is the "literal meaning" of the constitution in their mind. This is why some other people are very sensitive to issues such as this and why these people feel that a christian prayer at the beginning of a government activity or christian artifacts on government property should be banned. That prayer would not be allowed if it were a prayer to satan, right? It is not about freedom to exercise religion, it is about freedom to exercise a christian religion which is different.
In my opinion, the option that is the most fair to all citizens would be that everyone should be free to practice any religion they like in their private home and in their church. Religion shouldn't be mixed with government, in statues, in prayers unless it is in private.
