Some state constitutions in the US require belief in God or a Supreme Being as a prerequisite for holding public office or being a witness in court. This applies to Arkansas,[1] Maryland,[2] Mississippi,[3] North Carolina,[4] where the requirement was challenged and overturned in Voswinkel v. Hunt (1979),[citation needed] South Carolina,[5] Tennessee,[6] and Texas,[7] debatably.[8] A unanimous 1961 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Torcaso v. Watkins held that the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the federal Constitution override these state requirements,[9] so they are not enforced.
