In Our Lady of Guadalupe School v. Morrissey-Berru, the U.S. Supreme Court addresses important First Amendment questions. What exactly is the "ministerial exception"? Just how selective can church schools be when hiring, promoting, and firing religious educators? Should the government mettle in religious teachers’ employment disputes?
