Nor does it allow any individuals in positions of authority to push their religious views on others.

     The concept of pushing religious views on others is used broadly enough that it could be the subject of a similar topic.

It happens a lot.  Every state government building that insists on putting the 10 Commandments but not the Aesirian Code of Nine in front of it is promoting 1 religion over another.

     I think that is a fine example I would agree to, since the government there is explicitly promoting one religion over another. I will however see people say that advocating for policy views that one personally grounds in a Christian framework is a violation of separation of Church and State, which strikes me as being much too broad an application that ignores what it means to philosophically ground an idea.
