Your Scotus does one thing only, you tell me, then you give me a list of the many things they do,Our Supreme Court does one thing and one thing only, and that is hear cases that involve the constitutionality of laws, taxes, and to hear cases where written law was followed properly. Since you brought up religion, it's part of our Constitution. The government cannot support or go against people based on their religious beliefs.
Basically, your Scotus does practically everything that involves questions of law. Are you ignorant or were you trying to fool me?
Yes, government can decide against people based on their religious beliefs. They can just stand the religious beliefs against the facts of science.
Your Scotus could have been called upon to decide the Dover Intelligent Design question had it not been decided for the side of science.
Religion is in peril every time it needs to ask for legal decisions in which it contradicts science. Religion will have to go forward avoiding the need for legal opinions.
