Discussion Group 1 - Squirrel Hill - RFRA

This month's topic centers around RFRAs and the religious right's constant assaults on the Constitution with the goal of turning this nation into a theocracy. What is the best way to handle these egregious actions? Do we actually help their cause by responding to all of their provocations thus giving them extra credibility? Or is it better to confront them at every turn? How do we win the battle of public opinion? Or is that not winnable as long as religion is seen as a privileged domain?
