The Native American Church uses the drug peyote as part of their religious ceremony. Two
state employees in Oregon, Alfred Smith and Galen Black, who practiced this religion, were fired from their jobs for this drug use. They were then denied unemployment compensation because they were fired for “misconduct.” The state of Oregon bans the use of peyote in all circumstances. About half of the states and the Federal government do permit the use of peyote in certain religious situations. Smith and Black sued in federal court, claiming that the ban on peyote in religious circumstances violated their First Amendment right to freedom of religious expression. The U.S. Supreme Court sided with the state of Oregon in deciding this case. The court noted that the religious use of peyote was not being singled out for the ban, but rather than the use of peyote was banned in all circumstances. If Oregon had permitted peyote use in all situations, except religious ceremonies, that would have been a violation of religious expression.

Indicate whether the statement is true or false.Juanita has taken six courses at Valley Community College, and she has a grade average of B so far. All the courses she has taken have been in sociology and psychology. She's thinking of enrolling in another course next term, and she expects to make at least a B in whatever she takes. Would you assess Juanita's argument as stronger, weaker, or neither if you knew that she had made a B in each of her previous courses and not just that she has a B average?
