KY Supreme Court strikes down grant to religious college

ADF Attorney Gregory S. Baylor writing at speakupmovement.org: “The better solution would simply be not to have constitutional provisions that specially discriminate against religious schools in the funding context. It makes constitutional sense to deprive the government of the power to preferentially fund a particular religious school simply because it is religious, but it does not serve genuine religious freedom to categorically exclude religious schools from funding designed to serve legitimate governmental objectives — such as increasing the number of pharmacists in southeastern Kentucky (the purpose of the Kentucky General Assembly’s grant to the University of the Cumberlands).”
