Separation Of Church And State, Neutrality And Religious Freedom In American Constitutional Law, Robert A. Sedler
Separation Of Church And State, Neutrality And Religious Freedom In American Constitutional Law, Robert A. Sedler
Law Faculty Research Publications
Religious freedom is a favored value under the United States Constitution. The Constitution provides two-fold protection to religious freedom by means of the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment Clause protects against the “establishment” of an official church by the government and against governmental action “establishing religion,” while the Free Exercise clause is a textual guarantee of peoples’ right to practice their religion and to hold and act on religious beliefs, free from governmental interference. The Establishment Clause would appear to an outside observer as strongly endorsing the concept of separation of church and state, and the …
The New Victims Of The Old Anti-Catholicism, Christopher C. Lund
The New Victims Of The Old Anti-Catholicism, Christopher C. Lund
Law Faculty Research Publications
Santayana once said that those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it, the implication being that we can avoid future mistakes by paying better attention to past ones. Perhaps this is so. Or perhaps it is as George Bernard Shaw once said-that we learn from history only that we learn nothing from history. Yet one thing is surely clear.

Religion, Politics And American Foreign Policy In The Middle East, Robert A. Sedler
Religion, Politics And American Foreign Policy In The Middle East, Robert A. Sedler
Law Faculty Research Publications
In the United States, religion and politics are intertwined. This entwinement helps to explain America's strong and unwavering support for Israel.

The influence of Jewish-Americans on American foreign policy in the Middle East is primarily by way of Jewish strength in the Democratic party. Not only do Jewish-Americans strongly support Democratic candidates in all elections, but all but one of the disproportionately high number of Jewish Senators and Representatives in Congress are Democrats.
The Republicans are also strong supporters of …

The Protection Of Religious Liberty Under The American Constitution, Robert A. Sedler
The Protection Of Religious Liberty Under The American Constitution, Robert A. Sedler
Law Faculty Research Publications
Religious liberty is a favored value under the United States Constitution. The Constitution provides two-fold protection to religious liberty by means of the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment Clause, sometimes referred to as the separation of church and state, requires that the government maintain a course of complete official neutrality toward religion. The government cannot favor one religion over another, nor can it favor religion over non-religion. The Free Exercise Clause is a textual guarantee of peoples' right to practice their religion and to hold and act on religious beliefs. The First Amendment's guarantee of freedom …
