The laws will not be silent in time of war but they'll speak with a somewhat different voice.

It is impossible to build sound constitutional doctrine upon a mistaken understanding of Constitutional history... The establishment clause has been expressly freighted with Jefferson's misleading metaphor for nearly forty years... There is simply no historical foundation for the proposition that the framers intended to build a wall of separation... The recent court decisions are in no way based on either the language or intent of the framers.

The "wall of separation between church and State" is a metaphor based on bad history.

The Equal Rights Amendment would "turn holy wedlock into holy deadlock."

If you could say of any one individual that the court as an institution is the length and shadow of that individual, surely it would be John Marshall.

We start with first principles. The Constitution creates a Federal Government of enumerated powers.

It is always possible for the court to overreach its proper bounds and perhaps declare a lot of laws unconstitutional and frustrate the will of the majority in a way that it ought not be frustrated.
