- Title
Toward a RFRA That Works.
- Authors
Nugent, Nicholas
- Abstract
The article provides information about the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) in the U.S. It explores the argument that a true compelling interest test is inappropriately extreme for accidental interference cases. Meanwhile, the article also details the history of the Supreme Court's free exercise jurisprudence and it shows how the court came to a workable solution to the problem of accidental interference in the Adell Sherbert line cases. The later part of the article also provides several arguments for an interpretation of RFRA, which is more consistent with the methodology employed in the Sherbert line.
