I want to know the answer to the following question:
Why was the word "national" a cause for alarm to both Federalists and Anti-Federalists?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Some legal scholars, such as John Baker of LSU, theorize that Madison's initial proposed language—that Congress should make no law regarding the establishment of a "national religion"—was rejected by the House, in favor of the more general "religion" in an effort to appease the Anti-Federalists.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
