First Amendment Scholar
The Lemon Test originated with the Chief Justice Warren Burger majority opinion in Lemon v. Kurtzman of 1971.

8. Wow, they fixed up their website |
|
I hadn't been there in at least a year. Think I'll print out that test and post it quietly in the office kitchen for our resident freepy types to glower over.

Ah, I love the information on FFRF's web site. I scored 15. Not bad for someone who has been lied to my whole life about freedom of religion and free speech. I can say people in my hometown don't feel like we have it.

16. scored 15 out of 21, I thought I knew more about this, |
|
evidently, I know more than most Americans... sad.
if you score,
18 - 21: Wow! First Amendment Scholar
14 - 17: Congratulations! Better informed than most Americans
10 - 13: Passing Grade
6 - 9: Did you attend a parochial school? Try test again.
0 - 5: Are you sure you are not a member of the Religious Right?

didn't know the details of the recent cases....
a fact I'm changing by visiting DU !!!!
Thanks!
btw, isn't it telling that the reason the U.S. Supreme Court outlawed student-initiated prayers at high-school football games in 2000 because
Roman Catholic and Mormon children were being harassed by the born-again majority in the public schools?
God save us from these perverted a**wipes!

It is with some pride that I announce that I scored a perfect 21 out of 21. Not bad for a middle aged construction worker with only a High School education. It helps to read, and take an interest in the world around you. Something that the current ruling junta would never consider.
