Is a fight against equality and for privilege a fight for religious supremacy? Andrew L. Seidel, a constitutional attorney and author of the critically acclaimed book The Founding Myth: Why Christian Nationalism Is UnAmerican, dives into the debate on religious liberty, the modern attempt to weaponize religious freedom, and the Supreme Court's role in that crusade.Seidel examines some of the key Supreme Court cases of the last thirty yearsincluding Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission (a bakery that refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple), Trump v. Hawaii (the antiMuslim travel ban case), American Legion v. American Humanist Association (related to a group maintaining a 40foot Christian cross on governmentowned land), and Tandon v. Newsom (a Santa Clara Bible group exempted from Covid health restrictions), as well as the recent overturning of Roe v. Wadeand how a hallowed legal protection, freedom of religion, has been turned into a tool to advance privilege and impose religion on others. This is a meticulously researched and deeply insightful account of our political landscape with a foreword provided by noted constitutional scholar Erwin Chemerinsky, author of The Case Against the Supreme Court.The issue of church versus state is more relevant than ever in todays political climate and with the conservative majority status of the current Supreme Court. This book is a standout on the shelf for fans of Michelle Alexander, Bob Woodward, and Christopher Hitchens. Readers looking for critiques of the rise of Christian nationalism, like Jesus and John Wayne, and examinations like How Democracies Die will devour Seidel's analysis.Hardcover with dust jacket; 320 pages; 9 in H by 6 in W.
