To: Vindiciae Contra TyrannoSCOTUS
You are daft. - A quote from your post #34 refutes Keyes point on the 14th:

" -- the First Amendment also binds state governments. For religious liberty is part of the body, the corpus, of fundamental liberties guaranteed by the 14th Amendment: "No state shall deprive any person of ... liberty ... without due process of law."

The 1st, of course, has always bound the states, under the supremacy clause of Art.IV, Sec.4... The 14th was only needed to clarify the issue raised by the erronous Barron decision.
