41. It's a fundamental right. So SCOTUS is going to apply strict scrutiny.
What is the compelling interest in banning the Hijab?

SCOTUS more typically rules in favor of religious freedoms. I think the Courts Christian make up goes against abstract forms of Christianity like Mormonism. If they would have represented themselves to the court as something other than Christians. I absolutely believe that case would have had a totally different outcome. The flow of "Mainstream Christianity" is driven by what is and is not Christianity. They just love to attack their own on that.
