Bill of Rights
Sec. 3. The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without
discrimination or preference, shall forever be allowed in this state to all mankind; and
no person shall be rendered incompetent to be a witness on account of his opinions on
matters of religious belief; but the liberty of conscience hereby secured shall not be so
construed as to excuse acts of licentiousness, or justify practices inconsistent with the
