Ruling on Faith-Based Initiatives
28 October 2004A federal judge in Montana has ruled that Montana State University must stop giving federal funds from Bush's faith-based initiatives program to parish nursing programs, deciding it was impossible to separate parish nurses' religious activities from other aspects of their work. The judge, Richard Anderson, wrote in his decision, "'This blatant public endorsement and preference of faith and religion over non-faith and irreligion runs afoul' of the First Amendment ban on government establishment of religion."
