Reynolds v. United States
Line 16: Line 16:     
:Congress had made no law [as required by the text of the [[First Amendment]], and] those who wrote the 'establishment of religion' clause might be rather perplexed by the use which has been made of it in 1962. ...  [I]t was unfortunate that the Court decided the case, one way or the other [because] there are some matters which are essentially local in nature ... to be worked out by the people themselves in their own communities. ...  In a country which has a great tradition of tolerance, is it not important that minorities, who have benefited so greatly from that tolerance, should be tolerant, too?
