Some lawmaker might try it and it might even get passed into law somewhere in the US, but the courts would slap it down pretty quickly.  Law should not dictate how a religion can be observed.\n\nNow, if you are referring to federal, state, or local government being prohibited from having religious displays, then that is already banned by the constitution.  The government should have no part in promoting or banning any religion.  Even if 99% of the US were the same religion, the government should stay out of the religion business.
