No, my assertion stands. The part of morality we need to share is embodied in neutral laws, and is anything but bland. Other elements of religiosity can exist in harmony to the extent they don't overstep those bounds. But a religion involving, e.g. human sacrifice, would not be tolerated no matter how well-intentioned.

You seem to imply that (e.g.) Buddhists (being non-Judeo-Christian) are somehow inferior. That's the kind of attitude the Framers of the Constitution sought to dispel. Remember, much of the colonization of this country resulted from religious persecution in Europe.
