Both Heritage and the Federalist Society are overtly religious. Leonard Leo is a Conservative Catholic. He's been responsible for putting Conservative Catholic Justices in place on the Supreme court and elsewhere. Russ Vought describes himself as a "Christian Nationalist". Heritage is overtly religious, if not explicitly so. 

Religion mixed with govt is never good.
