Separation of Church and State – Part 2
Blog November 17th. 2009, 12:01amThe following is a list of cases that I have compiled that have relevance to the topic of separation of Church and State. A number of these aren’t specifically SoCS cases, but they do deal greatly with either the establishment clause or the free exercise clause of the first amendment. As such, I consider them pertinent to the discussion.

I was wondering, Will this paper you are working on be published on this site? I think I would very much like to read it if it is.

I have seriously considered it. To be honest, the paper is finished, but the story is far from over. I could not put in everything I wanted to into 9 pages or 12 size font, double-spaced text.
