The organization Americans United for Separation of Church and State does not like the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh to SCOTUS. Among their points:
Third, in friend-of-the-court briefs in both Santa Fe and Good News Club v. Milford Central School, as well as in a 2017 speech, Kavanaugh argued against long-standing precedent prohibiting the use of public funds for religious activities. If the Supreme Court were to adopt Kavanaugh’s views on public funding of religion, that would upend the bedrock constitutional principle that we each get to decide for ourselves whether and how our money goes to support religion.
Which is more than a little disturbing, if true. Naturally, a summary like this elides nuance. I don’t have time to read the speech at the link, so I can only say I find it disturbing information, since it would lead not only to lawsuits, but eventually to violence (lynchings and the like, for those who like their descriptions vivid) and, if held to in an extreme way, civil war.
