[edit] Formerly Disputed

I strongly doubt that the Supreme Court rejected theism. On the face of it they rejected only the notion that theism was the only basis for conscientious objection. --Trovatore 01:35, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Would someone please fix this? I don't know enough law to do it myself. I tried taking a look at the decision but some of the language seemed to suggest that the court thought the objectors' reasons were theistic, even if not in the sense of any existing religious organization. Maybe I was just reading it wrong. Anyway the court clearly did not reject theism; I hope someone can give a clear account of just what it did do. --Trovatore 20:23, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

Someone got to it one minute before I saved this last edit. Thanks :-) --Trovatore 20:41, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] the defendant in the case is wrong

The defendant in the case is Daniel Seeger, a student, not Pete Seeger the folk singer. THEMlCK 11:43, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
