Bill -

<< I was thinking specifically of McCollum v. Bd. of Education. That to
me was the
seminal case, since it involved religious instruction during school hours >>

Sounds reasonable. I always focus on Gitlow, since reversing that reverses
all of the incorporation cases, nailing freedom of religion, freedom of
speech, freedom of the press, and defendant's rights at one fell swoop. I'm
sure that would go a long way to making Reps. Barr and Aderholt happy.
