Opinion: People Of Faith Must Educate Themselves On The Supreme Court

The Supreme Court’s decision in Fulton v. Philadelphia left some conservatives desiring more protection for religious freedom, and left LGBTQ activists seeing potential for unfair treatment in the future. While the Supreme Court ruling ultimately won’t alter much, it should encourage people of faith to take more legal action when facing discrimination in the future.

The recent Fulton v. City of Philadelphia case reviewed by the Court looked at the Free Exercise Clause in the First Amendment and notably did not go further. The most important lasting outcome of the case should be that it encourages religious Americans to better understand the opinions of the Justices in order to know what actions they ought to take in the future to maintain their rights.
