The Constitution does not allow congress to make a law to establish
a religious enterprise/endeavor.  When originally drafted and made
law this prohibition only applied to the federal congress.  With the
passing of the 14th Amendment, this guarantee or protection is passed
on to the citizens of the U.S. and is applied against the states.
