The Impact Of Edwards V. Aguillard On Science Education In Louisiana Public Schools, Abigail Mcdonough

Senior Honors Theses

The landmark Louisiana case Edwards v. Aguillard ushered in a new era of legislation in which certain ideas are discriminated against because of their religious basis. Due to the Court’s misinterpretation of evidence and employment of a faulty test for a secular purpose, the Court is responsible for disastrous and far-reaching implications. This thesis will examine how the 1987 Supreme Court case Aguillard shifted American science education away from the exploration of multiple competing theories of man’s origins in the classroom. Although America was founded on principles such as freedom of religion and thought which should be protected, the Aguillard …

New Report Surveys Extent Of Religious Liberty Activism On The Left, Law, Rights, And Religion Project

Center for Gender & Sexuality Law

New York, New York — A report released today from the Law, Rights, and Religion Project at Columbia Law School offers a sweeping account of religious liberty activism undertaken by social justice and humanitarian movements while demonstrating how right-wing activists have fought for conservative Christian hegemony rather than religious liberty for all. It thus challenges the leading popular narrative of religious freedom.

American Legion V. American Humanist Association, Seth T. Bonilla

Public Land & Resources Law Review

The separation of church and state is a key element of American democracy, but its interpretation has been challenged as the country grows more diverse. In American Legion v. American Humanist Association, the Supreme Court adopted a new standard to analyze whether a religious symbol on public land maintained by public funding violated the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.

Membongkar Esensi Dasar Sila Pertama Pancasila: Internalisasi Pemikiran Islam Mohammad Arkoun Dalam Konsep Ketuhanan Yang Maha Esa, Nadila Mahilaveda Annafikarno, Ahmad Alfarizy

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Belief in the One and Only God as the first principle of Pancasila has hierarchical implications which are the prerequisites for realizing the next precepts. If traced, Soekarno had the concept that the belief in the one and only God does not mean that God is only one universally, but that understanding can only be owned by religious people and stored in belief. But in Pancasila, the nature of the one value is interpreted that it is noble for all Gods who are just, merciful and merciful who must be imbued with one spirit by all Indonesian people. In the …

Analysis Of Lafadz Ta'liq Talak In Islamic Law Perspective And Civil Law Of Marriage/Compilation Of Islamic Law, Nurhadi -

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

Actually marriage is a sacred thing. The contract that unites the two opposite sexes is bound strongly (mitsaqan ghalizha). A strong agreement is concluded in the agreement between the guardian and the prospective husband. Indonesian civil law requires saying sighat ta’liq husband to his wife. The core content of sighat ta’liq is a conditional divorce between the two if the conditions have been fulfilled. Islamic law considers marriage to be legitimate if it has enough conditions and pillars, without sighat ta'liq. Indonesian law requires the requirements of sighat ta'liq in government policy through the decree of the minister of religion …

The Claims And Limits Of Justice Scalia's Textualism: Lessons From His Statutory Standing Decisions, Michael P. Healy

Cardozo Law Review

Two decisions written by Justice Scalia near the end of his life, Lexmark International Inc. v. Static Control Components, Inc., 572 U.S. 479 (2014), and Thompson v. North American Stainless, LP, 562 U.S. 170 (2011), reshaped the law of statutory standing and provide important insights into the claims and limits of textualism. These decisions have reshaped the law of statutory standing in three ways. They have changed the legal terminology; expanded the range of cases to which the zone-of-interests test applies; and changed the application of the zone-of-interests test when it applies to determine statutory standing. This Article discusses these …

The Law Of The Soul, Arthur J. Jacobson

Cardozo Law Review

Do you believe that human beings have souls, and dogs, for example, do not? And if you believe that humans have souls, then must you also believe that in order for the soul to be a soul it must be immortal? Or can the soul be born with us and die with us, never to return, and still be a soul? And if you believe that it must be immortal, then must you also believe that if it is not immortal, then it is just a psyche - the forms of awareness, desiring and imagining that humans share with all …

Masterpiece Cakeshop And The Future Of Religious Freedom, Mark L. Movsesian

Faculty Publications

Last term, the Supreme Court decided Masterpiece Cakeshop, one of several recent cases in which religious believers have sought to avoid the application of public accommodations laws that ban discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. The Court’s decision was a narrow one that turned on unique facts and did relatively little to resolve the conflict between anti-discrimination laws and religious freedom. Yet Masterpiece Cakeshop is significant, because it reflects broad cultural and political trends that drive that conflict and shape its resolution: a deepening religious polarization between the Nones and the Traditionally Religious; an expanding conception of equality that …
