Religious Liberty on Winning Streak at Supreme Court



April 5, 2021 at 9:25 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Adam Liptak: “The Supreme Court has become far more likely to rule in favor of religious rights in recent years, according to a new study that considered 70 years of data.”

“The study, to be published in The Supreme Court Review, documented a 35-percentage-point increase in the rate of rulings in favor of religion in orally argued cases, culminating in an 81 percent success rate in the court led by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr.”

If by "religious liberty" they mean the kind of in your face Talibangelist bullshit coloring all laws in religiosity and false moralism, color me scared.

like "Right to life" is right wing verbiage; losing the argument before it ever starts.

How about "Bronze Age Bullshit Christofascism oppression".
