Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical and legal complexities surrounding the ownership of property held by religious institutions, particularly the Trinity Church in New York City. The author argues that the Church's vast wealth is the result of questionable practices and violations of constitutional principles, such as the separation of church and state. The book delves into the concept of cy pres, a legal doctrine that governs how courts handle the disposition of property originally intended for charitable or religious purposes. The author presents a detailed analysis of the Trinity Church case, highlighting its significance in shaping the legal framework for religious property ownership. The book also explores the broader implications of this case for the balance between religious freedom and public accountability.
