Marty,
Thanks.
Thornton, however, did not involve a statutory directive to
government to accommodate the religious needs of certain individuals,
but rather a statutory duty imposed on one set of private parties to
accommodate the religious needs of another set of private parties.
And Texas Monthly was a tax case. (There is, of course, language
in both cases that might be relevant to the narrower issue I'm pursuing.)
The Christian Science case is more directly on point, though, as you
say, it involves a pretty extreme case.
My question then, as refined, is this: Outside of the most blatant
denominational preferences, are there good examples of statutory
religion-based exemptions, defined in the narrow way I have in mind,
being struck down?
Thanks again.
Perry
