How long before Planned Parenthood joins this suit?
I thought that was implied.
I thought both groups were one in the same.
nice try satanists.
But the church of satan nor any other religion or non religion has any fundamental beliefs against the showing of information.
So, the feminists groups are fellow travelers with the satanic temple with regard to sacrifice of babies.
Just as I suspected all along.
You know, reading this makes me think that these folks aren’t really Satan worshippers but rather secularist attention whores trying to get themselves into the press.
Laws that prohibit murder, robbery and rape go against their beliefs too. Should they be overturned?
Stunning. So now abortion advocates are openly aligned with satanic practices.
Could make for some interesting debates in people states...
Give them the exemption. If satanism is recognized as a legitimate religion, then it must be accorded the same rights as any other.
Then go after the legitimization of this ridiculous, childish “religion.”
Our forefathers, when they wrote the First Amendment - did not envision religious practices without any limitations whatsoever. Nor did they envision the embrace of either Satanism or Islamism to the extent both *encourage* and uphold deceitful practices. For our society to prosper it must be held at least to the Judea-Christian ethic as pertains to murder, lying, theft, etc. If we need a Constitutional amendment to iterate this more clearly, then so be it. If not, then this will indeed be, as we are witnessing, a nation divided against itself.
Satanist are about death, especially of the innocent. Who would have guessed?
So, whose “rights” trump whose “rights”? I have never read anything in the Constitution that says that devil worshippers have the “right” to have their rubbers paid for by the U.S. taxpayers.
I say again as I said at the beginning ... Hobby Lobby is one of the worst SCOTUS decisions in history and WILL turn against us over the years. Now it won’t be this case because of the abortion component. But it is coming.
There are now going to be LEGIONS of cases based on “religious freedom”. Some will be frivolous but most will not. And if SCOTUS is not consistent in the application of this ridiculous ruling, it will have a destabilizing effect on society especially against Christians.
I don’t say any of this lightly but with 25 years of legal practice with an overwhelming amount of my arguments centering on Constitutional, Bill of Rights issues. I have even had occasion to argue before SCOTUS and other State and Federal Courts. Many thought this was a win for Religion. It was a devastating loss.
Hobby Lobby is the rallying cry and law ... against Christianity. Give it time. It is a time bomb that WILL go off in our faces. And even if you think SCOTUS will rush to our protection, this SCOTUS will not stay intact over the years, but the law will remain. The best we can hope for is that at some point down the road a more reasoned SCOTUS will overturn the decision.
What an arrogant fool. He couldn't be more wrong in the cases of contraceptives Hobby Lobby objected to being forced to provide (via insurance).
Despite popular (uninformed) opinion on the matter, Hobby Lobby didn't object to all contraceptives, just those that ARE known, as a matter of scientific fact, to cause abortions, like the "morning after pill". They were NOT opposed to devices that don't cause abortions, like condoms. They know the science, unlike this idiot.
If there's anything I hate more than willful obstinacy it's willful ignorance. Know the facts of the situation before opening your mouth, "Mister" Greaves, or you make yourself an even bigger fool.
Well you haven’t read anything in the Constitution that says anything about we Christians or the right to put “In God We Trust” on money or anything of that nature.
Constitutional interpretation is not about something explicitly in the Constitution If it were, we’d have no Nation as pretty much everything would be unconstitutional. Conservative, LibTard or otherwise it is about “constitutional interpretation” and there is no agreement in over 200 years how to do that.
There is no “just read the constitution” approach to Constitutional interpretation.
Ok, I understand that Satanists kill babies as part of their religion, didn’t really expect them to admit it, but there it is.
But these guys are saying that their religious belief is that their employer should PAY for them to kill babies.
My religious belief is that I should get a decent living wage. My employer is not up for that either.
How many of their employees are covered by company health insurance policies that they carry?
Having standing is a little trickier than just stomping your feet and declaring some nonsensical claptrap.
And these guys are different from democrats how???
It’s the same rambling incoherence from idiots like toilet brush head Debbie Wasserman-Shultz
Nice try, but it won’t work. The RFRA says that the state can infringe on religious liberty, but only when a) it can show a compelling state interest and b) it uses the least infringing method available to it.
All the government has to do is say that informed consent to a “medical procedure” is a compelling interest, and requiring “patients” to read material in order for them to be informed is a minimal infringement. Slam-dunk win, using the left’s own language against them.
