Where does it say that there will be "no establishment of religion?" The way I read it, it means there will be NO GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHED religion, such as they had in Britain. The queen is the head of their religion. There is NOTHING in the Constitution that prohibits religion. As a matter of fact it says congress cannot "prohibit" religious practice. I believe that a good lawyer could present case for more religious liberty based on the First Amendment.
