Just bumping this thread.
Lore - I don't see how this is more unconstitutional. At the moment we are giving religious organizations a financial advantage based SOLEY on the fact that they are religious. There is no constitutional justification for that.
Hi Lore, How did you form your opinion that a law inspired by the White House petition would not be unconstitutional? Did you read any of the Supreme Court cases cited in this thread to form your opinion? If you did read the cases, do you feel that BOB JONES UNIVERSITY, GOLDSBORO CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS, INC. v. UNITED STATES. 461 U.S. 574 (1983) is more applicable to a law inspired by the White House petition, or is HEIN, DIRECTOR, WHITE HOUSE OFFICE OF FAITH-BASED AND COMMUNITY INITIATIVES, et al. v. FREEDOM FROM RELIGION FOUNDATION, INC., et al (2007), RACHEL AGOSTINI, et al., PETITIONERS 96-552 v. BETTY LOUISE FELTON et al. CHANCELLOR, BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK, et al., LEMON v. KURTZMAN, 403 U.S. 602 (1971), or BOWEN v. KENDRICK, 487 U.S. 589 (1988) more applicable?
Peace be wtih you and everyone, who you love,
Robert
