| Sumario: | By applying the two religion clauses of the First Amendment (<i>free exercise</i> and <i>non-establishment</i>), the Supreme Court of the United States defended the autonomy of churches through the definition of ecclesiastical abstention in <i>Watson v. Jones</i> (1879). A century later, as a development of this decision in the field of labor relations, the federal courts recognized a ministerial exception by which churches would enjoy a sphere of autonomy in relation to their ministers. The Fifth Circuit did so in <i>McClure</i> (1972) and the US Supreme Court admitted the constitutionality of the ministerial exception ruling in <i>Hosanna-Tabor</i> (2012). This Court resolved a number of issues that had occupied the courts for forty years in relation to the identity of the minister and its evaluation as such, as well as the nature and application of that decision. |
