	Historic Supreme Court Cases
		The Court ruled that to force the Amish to comply with the compulsory attendance law means that they must either leave the state or risk the loss of their children to a secular society.
		The Court reasoned that, "A way of life that is odd or even erratic but interferes with no rights or interests of others is not to be condemned because it is different." The Amish offer their children an "ideal" vocational education, instilling in them the social and political responsibilities of citizenship.
		This case passed the first test, i.e., the purpose of the statute was secular and not religious; its legislative intent was to improve the quality of education.
