Freedom of religion includes freedom from religion.
Keep religion in the home, church and private, religious school, but exclude it from the public forum.
You have 100% misinterpreted the constitution. Freedom means the freedom to practice it anywhere. If you don't want to hear uncomfortable speech, you can leave and go to a country that isn't free. But America is not about thought police saying what can be expressed in public.
By restricting it, that denies it. Some believe proselytizing is an essential part of their religion.
Yep. People in believe all kinds of things. Lots of people believe in various mythologies. That doesn't give them any right to proselytize anyone else with their fantasies, most particularly not in publicly funded places like schools and government buildings.
But you would allow Bernie Sanders to do it?
