		<description>The first one sounds like it&#039;s in perfect conformity with the standard application of the First Amendment, at least as I understand it.

I have to admit, however, that the second case troubles me a bit, and I hope I can hunt up some good analysis of the Ninth Circuit&#039;s reasoning, so I can figure out whether this is going to be one of those circumstances where pleasure at the result blinds us to problems with the law.  I don&#039;t know if that&#039;s going to be the case, and I&#039;m not assuming that it will.  I&#039;m just a bit troubled by it, as - from the little that&#039;s posted here - it seems like it could be something that would be potentially problematic from a Free Exercise point of view.  But those are always the stickiest wickets, I suppose, those moments when the two clauses in the Amendment seem to be in tension with each other.</description>

		<description>Good news, although things have reached a sad pass when the most we can expect from SCOTUS is not to screw something up.</description>
