Everson Must Fall with Timon Cline

Lawyer and legal scholar Timon Cline joins the podcast to share his ambitious proposal to revisit and overturn the Supreme Court’s 1947 ruling on the Establishment Clause in Everson v. Board of Education. Drawing on his recent Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy article, "Everson Must Fall," co-authored with Josh Hammer (James Wilson '21) and Yoram Hazony, Cline explains the role that the opinion has played in misshaping our culture and a potential path to its reversal. 

Timon Cline is the Editor in Chief at American Reformer. He is an attorney and a fellow at the Craig Center at Westminster Theological Seminary and the Director of Scholarly Initiatives at the Hale Institute of New Saint Andrews College. His writing has appeared in Anchoring Truths, the American Spectator, Mere Orthodoxy, American Greatness, Areo Magazine, and the American Mind, among others.

The episode is adapted from a webinar the James Wilson Institute hosted with the Center on Religion, Culture, and Democracy of First Liberty Institute.
