1 Akron Strict Scrutiny 1 (2009-2010)

handle is hein.journals/akjopal1 and id is 1 raw text is: TEN QUESTIONS ON GAY RIGHTS AND FREEDOM OF RELIGION Wilson R. Huhn Professor Dent has made careful and thorough arguments against gay rights.' His work deserves serious consideration and a serious response. Our first task is to clear away the brush, to clarify the issues, to establish those points upon which Professor Dent and I both agree, so that we can more clearly understand precisely where we disagree. For that purpose I have prepared a series of ten questions that will progressively narrow the issues concerning gay rights and free exercise rights until we come to the principal point upon which Professor Dent and I disagree - the definition and application of the principle of equality. * B.A. Yale University, 1972; J.D. Cornell Law School, 1977; C. Blake McDowell, Jr., Professor of Law, University of Akron School of Law. I dedicate this essay to my sister, Elisabeth, who exemplifies courage and devotion. 1.
