Of Pharisees and Lawyers or And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. (Luke 16.17)

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the intersection of religion, law, and politics in the USA, this essay examines Stephen L. Carter's stance on the separation of church and state. It argues that despite his self-identification as a separatist, Carter's writings reveal an accommodationist perspective, characterized by his dichotomization of church and state and claims of religious oppression. The analysis critiques his biased interpretations of legal cases and suggests that his frequent references to divine authority undermine his separatist claims, positioning God above the state.
