Maybe Scalia thought the law in Kiryas Joel was facially neutral,
and that the law in Lukumi was facially discriminatory. His Kiryas
Joel comments begin with In order to invalidate a facially neutral
law . . . Then in Kiryas Joel, he might have been importing the
equal protection rule, from

So what do you expect Scalia would say about the default

Not having read your article, I can't say much on the subject.
For everyone on the Court (except Justice Thomas) context -- especially

Maybe his Kiryas Joel dissent accepts current EC doctrine arguendo,
though his preferred view (as revealed in his Lukumi and Edwards v.
Aguillard opinions) would render legislative motivation irrelevant in
cases of facially neutral laws?

The very first line of his dissent in Edwards, as Douglas alludes to, seems
to deny the validity of considering motive:
Even if I agreed with the questionable premise that legislation can be
invalidated under the Establishment Clause on the basis of its motivation
alone, without regard to its
rights language in Smith as well.
