Steven D. Smith has posted an excellent short piece, The Paralyzing Paradox of Religious Neutrality.  The piece revisits some of the criticisms that Steve first made in book form in Foreordained Failure, but there is a new critique of some of the arguments in support of religious neutrality to be advanced by Andrew Koppelman in an interesting forthcoming book, Religious Neutrality in American Law (about which I won’t say anything more, as it is still unpublished).  If you are interested in a short and readable introduction to some of these debates, this is a good place to begin.  — MOD
