WORCESTER — Attorney General Martha Coakley is supporting a gay couple's legal battle against the Diocese of Worcester after the pair was allegedly denied the right to buy a church-owned mansion in Northbridge.

Two Sutton men, James E. Fairbanks and Alain J. Beret, a married gay couple, filed a civil suit in Worcester Superior Court in 2012 against the diocese and its real estate agent after their offer to buy the Oakhurst Conference and Retreat Center, a 44-bedroom mansion in the Whitinsville section of Northbridge, was rejected by the Diocese of Worcester.

There is no freedom of religion according to the left. None.

Obama, as I’ve said before HATES:

Christianity, the Constitution, and capitalism.

Hates ‘em.

1st amendment Freedom of Assembly means that the people are free to peaceably assemble and also free to not assemble. That includes doing business. These anti-discrimination laws are unconstitutional.

Let the silent agenda against the gays begin Atlas Shrugged style.

Atlas Shrugged begins with the words "Who is John Galt?"... And the Atlas Shrugged hero, John Galt, is not romantically involved with any female in the book.

Meanwhile, at the end of Atlas Shrugged, John Galt's "Gulch" population is exclusively male ... before Dagny's arrival.

Go figure.

If you look at a photo of Ayn Rand it becomes readily apparent why she didn’t write romance novels...; )

From Ayn Rand ...

"Romanticism is the conceptual school of art. It deals, not with the random trivia of the day, but with the timeless, fundamental, universal problems and values of human existence. It does not record or photograph; it creates and projects. It is concerned—in the words of Aristotle—not with things as they are, but with things as they might be and ought to be."

Have a great day.
