I've been working on an article about the First Amendment and the Establishment Clause in terms of the oft-cited "Separation of Church and State."
However, today I see that the blog Outside the Asylum has an article on this subject which seems far superior to my own efforts on the subject.
So instead, I'll just refer you over to this article then: http://tonylayne.blogspot.com/2011/06/secularism-and-establishment-clause.html

There is an interesting article where Peggy Noonan's WSJ articles on the Church and abuse are critiqued and shown to be in error, especially where she claims that the Church has done little and that only at the instigation of the media.
Given many people like to cite Noonan (using the fallacy of irrelevant authority) as a "Conservative Catholic" [arguing that she can't have an agenda]. I think the points made here should be considered.
You can see the article here.
