(The Justice Department holds that the Lutherans cannot fire Perich for complaining to the government even if church teaching forbids it.)

So separation of Church and State only applies when it works for the State??
The current Government is not a friend of the people, the Constitution, the military....

Exactly. The liberals’ favorite “wall of separation” document, Jefferson’s letter to the Danbury Baptists explained that this kind of interference by the government was not allowed under the Bill of Rights. Contrary to popular belief, the courts are part of the government.

This is why secular ideologies need to be treated the way religions have come to be treated under the law. Otherwise, religious freedom will become a relic.
