词条 | Edgerton Bible Case |
释义 |
After failing to convince the school board to end the practice, the parents took their case to court. In November 1888 the circuit court decided that the readings were not sectarian because both translations were of the same work. The parents took their case to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. In State ex rel Weiss v. District Board 76 Wis. 177 (1890), 3, otherwise known as the Edgerton Bible Case, the judges overruled the circuit court's decision, concluding that it illegally united the functions of church and state.[2] In 1963, the United States Supreme Court banned government-sponsored compulsory prayer from public schools (see Abington School District v. Schempp), and Justice William Brennan, Jr. cited the Edgerton Bible Case in his decision.[3][1] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.wisconsinhistory.org/Records/Article/CS1745 |title=Edgerton Bible Case |publisher=Wisconsin Historical Society |accessdate=October 5, 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wicourts.gov/courts/supreme/docs/famouscases11.pdf |title=Famous Cases of the Wisconsin Supreme Court: State ex rel.
