Tennessee Supreme Court (1975) in the case of Swann v. Pack, 527 S.W. 2d 99, 101 (Sup. Ct. Tn. 1975), asserted:
<The scales are always weighted in favor of free exercise of religion, and the State's interest must be compelling, it must be substantial, and the danger must be clear and present and so grave as to endanger paramount public interests before the state can interfere with the free exercise of religion.> 1975TN001
