>>>How did Justice Black provide anti-Christian ammunition by acknowledging James Madison’s authority on the meaning of the religion clauses, a policy adopted by the Court in 1878 in the matter of Reynolds v. United States?<<<
Explained in post #67.
Point out a sentence or two in Justice Black's opinion that you believe provides anti-Christian ammunition or shut up and go stand over there with all the other little boys that make claims they can't prove.
MR. MADISON said he apprehended the meaning of the words to be, that CONGRESS SHOULD NOT ESTABLISH A RELIGION, AND ENFORCED THE LEGAL OBSERVATION OF IT BY LAW, NOR COMPEL MEN TO WORSHIP GOD IN ANY MANNER CONTRARY TO THEIR CONSCIENCE. Whether the words are necessary or not, he did not mean to say, but they had been required by some of the state conventions, who seemed to entertain an opinion, that under the clause of the Constitution, which gave power to CONGRESS TO MAKE ALL LAWS NECESSARY AND PROPER TO CARRY INTO EXECUTION THE CONSTITUTION, AND THE LAWS MADE UNDER IT, ENABLED THEM TO MAKE LAWS OF SUCH A NATURE AS MIGHT INFRINGE THE >>>> RIGHTS OF CONSCIENCE <<<<, AND ESTABLISH A NATIONAL RELIGION; to prevent these effects he presumed the amendment was intended, and he thought it as well expressed as the nature of the language would admit.
