The Montana Case On Religious Schools
Transcript:
Bryan Fischer here with the Life and Liberty Minute. The Supreme Court struck down a Montana law that prevented tax-payer funding for religious schools. This is great news for parents and Christian schools. Education dollars should follow the child to the school of the parents’ choice. However, it’s bad news for the Constitution. The Constitution does not give the federal government any authority at all to meddle with the internal religious affairs of the individual states. As Clarence Thomas said, only Congress, and by extension the federal government, is bound by the First Amendment. Religious affairs under the Constitution are to be entirely within the province of the States. Montana is allowed to do anything it wishes with the regulation of religion. Judicial activism went our way this time. But what if it goes the other way the next time?
