Background:
ENDA will make it illegal for employers to refuse to hire an employee based on that person’s “sexual orientation” or “gender identity.” This would mean that a business or organization with more than 15 employees would be barred by federal law from refusing to hire a person because of the person’s sexual orientation or how they identify their gender “with or without regard to the individual’s designated sex at birth.” This opens up the opportunity for anyone to file a lawsuit against a business or organization they claim did not hire them based on their “sexual orientation” or “gender identity.”

Although H.R. 3017 includes an exemption for religious organizations, this religious exemption could lead to courts making a determination if a certain employee was hired to perform work of a religious nature, or if the business or organization is even religious in nature. Additionally, this religious exemption would not apply to a secular company, even if owned and operated by people of faith who believe that homosexuality is a sin. H.R. 3017 will require people of faith to check their religious practices at the door of their workplace.

I'm so glad they left it as ambiguous as possible. Pedophilia, and necrophilia are "orientations" too. Maybe children can learn about beastiality.... or even better, sex with dead animals and minor children. I feel so enlightened just thinking about this.

Nope..... uh uh. We're homeschooling all the way. And if they try to ban homeschooling, my kids still won't go to their fag indoctrination camps..... and I ain't going to prison.

Line, meet sand.
