Life Without Lemon: The Status Of Establishment Clause Jurisprudence After Rosenberger V. Rector & Visitors Of The University Of Virginia, Julie Madison Angus Nov 1996

Life Without Lemon: The Status Of Establishment Clause Jurisprudence After Rosenberger V. Rector & Visitors Of The University Of Virginia, Julie Madison Angus

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This casenote analyzes Rosenberger v. Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia and determines that the Court misapplied Establishment Clause precedent and erroneously rejected the three-prong Lemon test. In examining the decision, the note provides a brief historical overview of the development of the numerous tests surrounding the Establishment Clause, focusing primarily on the past fifty years. The note concludes that in failing to mention the Lemon test, Rosenberger merely adds more confusion to the already bewildering area of Establishment Clause jurisprudence.


Restoring Free Exercise Protections By Limiting Them: Preventing A Repeat Of Smith, James M. Donovan Nov 1996

Restoring Free Exercise Protections By Limiting Them: Preventing A Repeat Of Smith, James M. Donovan

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This article addresses the concerns involved with the recently enacted Religious Freedom Restoration Act and how this sets the stage for a revisiting of Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith. This article suggests that full Free Exercise protections can be extended to most contexts if they are withdrawn from others. The goal is to accomplish a principled approach that does not contravene the spirit of the First Amendment. The proposed limiting principles argue collectively that full protections should be reserved for personal, central beliefs and actions about personal conduct whose accommodation does not raise Establishment issues, …

Federal Broadband Law, John Thorne, Michael K. Kellog, Peter W. Huber, Jeffrey A. Wolfson Jan 1996

Federal Broadband Law, John Thorne, Michael K. Kellog, Peter W. Huber, Jeffrey A. Wolfson

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

The authors of this book have brought together a vast and varied array of experience. Mr. Thorne is the Vice President & Associate General Counsel for Bell Atlantic; Mr. Huber is a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research; and Mr. Kellogg is a Partner at Kellogg, Huber, Hansen & Todd. A reader will find the occasional use of technical jargon, such as "domsats" (domestic satellites), "coax" (coaxial cable), and "syndex" rules (syndicated exclusivity rules to protect syndicated, non-network programming) to be somewhat confusing. "Telcos" and "cablecos" are telephone and cable companies, respectively. Overall, however, technical jargon is …

Joining A Cult: Religious Choice Or Psychological Aberration, Dena S. Davis Jan 1996

Joining A Cult: Religious Choice Or Psychological Aberration, Dena S. Davis

Journal of Law and Health

In this article, I will analyze the different theories about "cult" membership and conversion, specifically focusing upon whether or not conversions to cults ought to be respected by the law in the same way that the law respects conversion to be respected by the law in the same way that the law respects conversion to and membership in, mainstream religions. In section II, I attempt (unsuccessfully) to define a "cult". In section III, I discuss the civil liberties issues surrounding "cults" and the public furor they have engendered. In section IV, I discuss the different and competing theories about why …
