A great opinion, and win, in an important religious-freedom case
Out of a federal district court in North Dakota, courtesy of Judge Daniel Traynor, here Download Gov.uscourts.ndd.65135.31.0 is an excellent opinion, granting a motion for a preliminary injunction filed by the Catholic Benefits Association (represented by the great Martin Nussbaum and his team) in a case involving (yet) another administrative/executive effort to limit religious freedom. I particularly enjoyed this footnote:
"Unchecked government power creates martyrs like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, imprisoned and
executed for expressing opposition to euthanasia and the persecution of Jews; Miguel Pro, arrested
and eventually executed for violation of Mexico’s anti-Catholic Calles Law; and Thomas More,
famous for being executed by the British king for the crime of not saying anything."
Viva Cristo Rey!
