again, I'm showing my ignorance here - not a lawyer, don't claim to have any guidance
but I'm not sure just because the law doesn't specifically address religion and religion only, that Religion still does not get an exemption.
maybe the CDC does have the ability to override it
but I don't think the founding fathers determined that our constitutional rights are to only be upheld during "normal" times. in fact, I'd argue those rights are more important during times of crisis. (see Patriot Act)
now it seems like common sense to stay away from a crowd - and I'm not debating the common sense part of it, just the legality.
at any rate, its seems like it is well covered here with the rebuttal.
It doesn't.
I posted the case law yesterday in another thread.
