religious freedom or renegade gardening?

i just read an interesting story in the wall street journal about a secretive religious group in new mexico who are planning to build a temple and a green house in an upscale neighborhood in santa fe. problem is, these divine gardeners have been guided to drink a hallucinogenic tea to "amplify their concentration which facilitates their connection with god"...and the supreme court agrees. the new greenhouse would grow the two plants needed for brewing the dreamy drink: neighbors are furious!
