"Freedom of Religion" vs. "Freedom of Worship"

That's a departure from what most Americans understand as "freedom of religion," but it may still seem like an inconsequential difference. The truth is that changing the word "religion" to "worship" drastically changes what is protected. Read the words of the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." That "free exercise" wording protects those whose religion is so much more than worship. For those who are Christians, we're called to live our religion, not just observe services on Sundays. An attempt to protect only the "freedom of worship" is a step toward banishing religious expression outside of the church setting in all its forms.
