    Folks:  Please let's focus on technical legal discussions of the
questions of the law of government and religion.  If someone wants to
tie these questions to Torcaso v. Watkins, or for that matter to other
legal principles, that's great.  But discussions at this level of
abstraction, with no tie to concrete legal matters, is not helpful on
the list.

	Are they to be judges only of "the facts" or also "the law"? And
if not "the law," sez who? What is a juror to do if he believes law is
unjust -- un-Godly, un-Constitutional?

and blessed are those contentions by which it is necessary to maintain
the kingdom of Christ." -- John Calvin.
