Some of you may have seen an article about a US federal court decision
involving a Buddhist who, when released from prison, was ordered by his
parole office to join Alcoholics Anonymous. The Buddhist sued, claiming that
AA is a religious organization and that being ordered to attend meetings
there violated his constitutionally guaranteed rights to freedom of religion.
He won his case.
Any comments?
