A playground separating church and state: Faith and Justice: The latest actions by the U.S. Supreme Court, including sending two cases back to the lower courts, are setting the stage for more cases on funding of religious schools.
MGB:_This case will be a useful precedent in overturning the Blaine Amendments that were aimed at not funding Catholic schools for entirely bigoted reasons. How this is done is important, however. Taxes must go up at local and state levels to pick up the slack. People who send their kids to Catholic school need to pay a bit more in taxes in exchange for that free tuition. Also, being gracious about unions would help the bishops argue for the money.
