Maybe Christians need their own Mafia....
“And if by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you.”
“Some mulsims refused to deliver beer against their religious beliefs and were awarded $125,000”
Star transport had a policy of swapping loads to accommodate driver’s request if not inconvenient to the company. The admitted their guilt at not allowing the muslims to swap loads.
If they had not had that policy, they would not have been found at fault.
There should have been a buycott for them.
They could have sold cookies and muffins, etc online.
They may have ended up with more business.
They could have even put Christian symbols or verses on the baked goods.
Now, after a steady drip-drip-drip, all in the name of "Raising Awareness" ... it's safe to say that I'm aware. And, my guess is that there are a right good number of people who are just as aware as I am. We're aware, and paying full attention.
I'll make a prediction that - sooner rather than later - they will prefer to go back to the live-and-let-live tolerance of 20-odd years ago.
It’s starting to make sense to me why so many cultures around the world put sexual deviants to death.
The phallus inhalers and carpet munchers want to eliminate Christianity from this country, so they can do whatever the hell they want.
bkmk
Sorry to hear of them closing.
The minimum known cost in this case for business owners with religious convictions who are evidently ignorant of their 14th Amendment protections from state abridgment of their constitutionally enumerated rights.
14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Citizens with religious convictions should also note regarding exercising their 14th Amendment protections that Acts 22:23-30 shows that Paul claimed his rights as a Roman citizen to save himself from being flogged.
Thats what Kasich says.
that’s because he can’t wait to wolf it down in one bite...
I’ve said before that the way around this problem is for Christian businesses to get together a group of conservative churches, and make a contract that they will only provide that particular item to couples that go through those churches.
This works because churches can legally discriminate. They can refuse to marry homosexuals.
This would mean that they could sell everything else, all other baked goods, to the public, but wedding cakes are exclusively through these churches. It also cuts out business from secular marriages and liberal church marriages, but that lost business would be smaller.
In this particular circumstance, when the lesbians walked in and tried to order a wedding cake, the bakery could turn them down because of this exclusive contract, saying that their wedding cakes are contractually prohibited from being sold “to the public”.
And breaking contracts like this in court is extremely hard.
