Have you wondered how it happened?

I was catching up on my reading of Al Mohler's commentaries today and came across an interesting factoid that put together some pieces for me. Did you even wonder how the Supreme Court - who rules on Federal matters - even began to decide 1st Amendment cases for individual states? In this commentary Al Mohler quotes a constitutional scholar who exlains that it was a misapplication of the 14th Amendment to the 1st Amendment which started it all. Very interesting as a power grabbing strategy.
