Prohibiting The Free Exercise Thereof

A Connecticut legislator has introduced a bill, #1098, that will prevent Catholic Bishops from having the right to direct the financial, legal, or administrative decisions of their dioceses.

Our nation’s First Amendment includes the phrase, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” I understand that the Connecticut Constitution has similar wording.

Hmmmm.
