Jewish Newspaper Interviews Scalia On Religion and State

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
In an interview this week with the Jewish newspaper Hamodia, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia spoke about the Court's Establishment Clause jurisprudence and about the role religion should play in American life. He said:

He also remarked:
