National Affairs

We haven't talked about this specific plaintiff.

Yeah, we've gotten ourselves in a lot of trouble on this issue, right? Again, I wrote about this most extensively in National Affairs like a year and a half ago on the original meaning of religion, but nobody seriously thought that non-theistic belief systems qualified for religious liberty, like religious exercise protections until...

the mid-20th century when we started getting these.

It was mostly war, conscientious objector cases.
