How about a hypo involving religious liberty in the public schools.
Suppose a public school has a sex education class that includes units on homosexuality and transgenderism. If a religious family requests an opt-out from this unit, do they have religious liberty rights under the FFA to have their children excused from the unit?
Is there a substantial burden on the family’s religious exercise? If so, is there a compelling interest in this particular case?
Suppose a public school requires all teachers to take a mandatory DEI orientation program on sexual orientation and gender identity. Can religious teachers opt out?
Suppose a public school does not allow Muslim students an excused absence from class to pray together for a few minutes in an empty classroom during Ramadan?
Suppose the state has a law requiring all pharmacies to stock the abortion pill. The owner of a small drug store objects based upon his pro-life religious beliefs.
Suppose a professor at a state university has a policy that requires every student to attend class the day a guest lecturer will teach the class. The class conflicts with a student's Good Friday service at church.
