What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Good afternoon - here is a question regarding the Separation of Church and State.
Would it be considered a violation of said right if a Court hands down a sentence that the defendant must attend a class in a Methodist Church and said Church is the only place this class is available?
If the defendant does not attend the class, they would then be found in violation of probation, with no alternative to take said class.
It should be noted the class is in the actual Church itself in the pew where the Bible is present and other Methodist religion propaganda is available.
Thanks for any insight.
