Apparently it violates the establishment clause. Yet no one knows what church it establishes
Oh for ***** sake, THIS again?!
That's not the sole application of the establishment clause! It means government can't discriminate on basis of religion! And that moron #45 just went out in public and said YET AGAIN that his purpose is to exclude MUSLIMS.
Read a book already!
I understand our current education system neglects educating the people about the constitution. And I understand you are unable to answer the question because there is no answer. That is no excuse for and uncivil response.
The constitution restrains government in two areas. I'll try to make this as simple as possible. The two areas are the establishment clause, which prevents the government from forcing a religious viewpoint and in some situations religious activities onto people, and the free exercise clause which prevents government from stopping you from practicing your religion.
This executive order doesn't force a religious viewpoint onto anyone. It doesn't mention religion. It doesn't prevent anyone from practicing their religion.
Neither clause is in play.
And for future reference if there was a law that targeting a certain religious group, it would be a free exercise issue and not an establishment clause issue.
This ruling should be overturned immediately.
