- Title
THE ORIGINAL MEANING AND SIGNIFICANCE OF EARLY STATE PROVISOS TO THE FREE EXERCISE OF RELIGION.
- Authors
Nestor, Branton J.
- Abstract
The article discusses what the author refers to as the original meaning and significance of early state provisos to America's free exercise of religion guarantees, and it mentions the late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's legal argument in the Employment Division v. Smith case which deals with the American Constitution's Free Exercise Clause. According to the article, early provisos withheld protection from conduct that violates the public peace or safety of the state.
