So I've been studying some different things (ask me if you want to know on what) and went off on a little side tangent. I thought this was so cool I had to share. I know I haven't been on my blog on a very long time...but this "something new" that I learned was too good not to share.
CHURCH OF THE HOLY TRINITY V. UNITED STATES, 143 U. S. 457 (1892)
Besides all the law rhetoric (which I tend to skim over) there were some awesome references. I'll give you the paragraph where it starts into these references...
"We find, therefore, that the title of the act, the evil which was intended to be remedied, the circumstances surrounding the appeal to Congress, the reports of the committee of each house, all concur in affirming that the intent of Congress was simply to stay the influx of this cheap unskilled labor.
But, beyond all these matters, no purpose of action against religion can be imputed to any legislation, state or national, because this is a religious people. This is historically true. From the discovery of this continent to the present hour, there is a single voice making this affirmation."
If I were to put all of it on here, it would make for a very long post. So if you are interested, click on the link and read it for yourself. I found it to be very insightful.
Enjoy!
