The Texas Constitution

                            Article 1 - BILL OF RIGHTS

                              Section 6 - FREEDOM OF WORSHIP

    All men have a natural and indefeasible right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own
    consciences. No man shall be compelled to attend, erect or support any place of worship, or to maintain any
    ministry against his consent. No human authority ought, in any case whatever, to control or interfere with the rights
    of conscience in matters of religion, and no preference shall ever be given by law to any religious society or mode
    of worship. But it shall be the duty of the Legislature to pass such laws as may be necessary to protect equally
    every religious denomination in the peaceable enjoyment of its own mode of public worship.
