Supreme Court appears inclined to allow 1st taxpayer-funded religious charter school.

Oklahoma court had blocked the Catholic Church's charter school contract.

A decision overruling the state high court would have ripple effects nationwide.

The court's three liberal members united in the view that charter schools are quintessentially public institutions.

" Today 's oral arguments made clear that states must not treat religious individuals and institutions as second -class citizens," a former clerk to Justice Thomas says.

Opponents of religious charter schools say they fear a major ruling is on the horizon and could be transformative.

"The constitutional protections that have guarded true religious freedom for generations are at risk," a left-leaning Christian advocate says.
