- Notes
- The Manual of Devotion for the House of Refuge, of the City of New York (New York, 1884) does not provide for a Catholic service; as a result, the Catholic Union of New York raised objections to this exclusion because the Christian chapel services are limited to Protestant children. Adler discusses the legitimate religious needs of the unserved Jewish children at the House of Refuge for juvenile delinquents located on Randall’s Island; their number is estimated to be between twenty and thirty (p. 9). He addresses some of the relevant separation of church and state issues and the question of whether or not the United States was founded, as many argue, as a Christian nation.
