(Scroll down for the answer)
In November 2022 I ran this search in Westlaw using the following search parameters: wp("religious freedom"). Surprisingly, there were only nine hits. The below case citation was one of the top hits.
"The right of religious freedom embraces not only the right to worship God according to the dictates of one's conscience, but also the right ‘to do, or forbear to do, any act, for conscience sake, the doing or forbearing of which, is not prejudicial to the public weal‘." Barnette v. W. Virginia State Bd. of Educ., 47 F. Supp. 251, 253 (S.D.W. Va. 1942) (citation omitted), aff'd, 319 U.S. 624, 63 S. Ct. 1178, 87 L. Ed. 1628 (1943)
