Abstract

The article examines whether properly conceived law is capable of incorporating morality. Lawyers and scholars argue whether the guarantees of equal protection, freedom of speech, free exercise of religion, prohibitions on cruel and unusual punishments and unreasonable searches and seizures, require courts and other governmental decision makers to adhere to the correct moral principles regarding equality, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, punishment and privacy.
