Legal Aspects of the Faith-Based Initiative
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper assessing the legality of faith-based initiatives as promoted by the Bush administration. The merits and dangers of government support for faith-based initiatives could be discussed for so long that no one is able to accomplish any good, and still without arriving at any common ground to which all could freely subscribe. The bottom line in considering whether public funding of faith-based initiatives is legal lies in the first phrase of the First Amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” Because Congress is not seeking to establish any religion, there should be no difficulty in supplying funding for sectarian organizations achieving real results in social pursuits.
