On the Square Today

Matthew J. Franck on what comes after Hosanna-Tabor :

Yesterday’s unanimous Supreme Court decision in  Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School  v.  Equal Employment Opportunity Commission , upholding a small Lutheran school’s right to control its employment of “commissioned ministers” on its teaching staff, is very good news indeed for religious freedom. Congratulations are due to the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, to Professor Douglas Laycock of the University of Virginia (who teamed up with Becket in representing the school), and to writers of supportive  amicus  briefs.
