Good luck at the Mosques.

My first thought as well, but of course they have no intention to go after anything but the churches.

The LCMS is mentioned in this report. Even the LCMS is under pressure to become more “relevant”. Google or search for “Ryan Turnipseed” on YouTube and you will see how the latest release of their religious documents has been infected with progressive nonsense.

So non-Muslims should apply for funding as a minority. Won’t work but why not?

[fwdude]

HomoFascism on steroids.

The Supreme Court has already ruled on this

[who_would_fardels_bear]

This seems to also be a violation of the right to assembly which implies a right to not assemble with those who you disagree with.

Of course that all went out the window when feminists forced themselves into male only clubs, etc.

And the excuse is always that if business is taking place or if money can be made doing something, then everyone needs to be able to participate.

It's ironic that the only time progressives support unfettered capitalism is when they want to infest otherwise good organizations with their evil ways.

Supreme Court already shot this down in a case from another state that wanted to force the Catholic Church on who they wanted them to hire.

SC ruled freedom of religious assembly means their right to hire those who agree with their faith is protected. So try as they may, it will be dead.

I will wait to see the end result of all this.

My first instinct is to defend the religious institutions against government intrusion, but in almost every major case over the years I’ve learned that the organization(s) targeted by the government don’t meet even a minimal standard as religious institutions. Catholic Charities is a perfect example of this.

Gender is a grammatical term.

[fwdude]

Yes, I was always taught 3 genders in most languages:
masculine, feminine, and neuter.

...but in almost every major case over the years I’ve learned that the organization(s) targeted by the government don’t meet even a minimal standard as religious institutions.

Excuse me, but numerous church schools have been attacked in this way. A Catholic school in Massachusetts was ruled against years ago when they denied a cafeteria director job to an open, "married" homosexual.

[Rocky Mountain Wild Turkey]

Well ... as a Catholic in His Roman church ... we (and the Eastern churches) could learn a lot from the Muslims when it comes to no-nonsense, courage, critical mass, and legal consequences for such attacks on one’s faith.

[Organic Panic]

As EVERYONE reading this knows. This will NOT apply to the muslims.

[Alberta's Child]

I’d have to see the specifics of that case to comment on it. Can you post a link to it?

[gov_bean_ counter]

What are you expecting, the Spanish Inquisition???

[sevinufnine]

Just another reason to home school you children.

[Honorary Serb]

There are only two genders—male and female!

And the FEDERAL Constitution guarantees freedom of religion!

These creeps are asking for another unanimous Supreme Court opinion against them!
