The Mobilization of Shame
The Religious Freedom Restoration Act
right to ingest peyote as part of a religious ritual. Smith held that as long as a statute was generally applicable and not directed at religion, it would be upheld, regardless of whether it infringed on a religious practice.2 This unexpectedly broad and severe opinion of the Court galvanized a large number of diverse religious groups as well as various civil rights organizations and the eventual result of their efforts was the Religious Freedom …
Putting the World's Oppressors on Trial
On 12 March 1992, the United States became the first country in the world to inaugurate legislation offering torture victims the legal right to sue their oppressors for civil damages.

However, the situation changed when the Chinese government ordered the brutal slaughter of pro-democracy activists in Tiananmen Square. Since then, the administration and Congress have be…

The Christian Response to the Holocaust
The reaction of the Christian community to the Holocaust can generally be described as mild, vague, and belated. While there are notable exceptions to the general ineffectiveness of the Church to affect its concern over rising antisemitism, it failed in any significant way to provide political or moral leadership to combat the antisemitic designs of Hitler's Germany. Since World War II, the Christian community's state ments condemning the Holocau…

American Laws Regulating the Formation of the Marriage Contract
American law regarding the formation of the marriage contract has not changed in any substantial way during the twentieth century. This body of law, which was generally adopted from English and ecclesiastical law, is, however, archaic in many respects. It contains impediments and inducements to marriage which violate basic human rights. Among the several reforms which should be introduced are the establishment of a nationally accepted uniform mar…
