“I do think in the mind of the president, the thought that we would have state legislatures in the 21st century in the United States of America passing laws that would use religion to try to justify discriminating against people for who they love is unthinkable,”

Unless you're Muslim, like our president.

Then, it's OK to stone homos to death.

I find it unthinkable that Christians would be discriminated against for what they believe about God.

AND ... Obama thinks it’s perfectly normal to run Christian businesses “out of business” or FORCE the owners to do business AGAINST their deeply-held religious convictions!!

Well, to tell you what I’ve thought about this legislation, all along, is that it’s the “gay issue” that brought it out ... BUT ... it’s not JUST about gays, but preventing Christian business owners from being forced into do several things that they consider to be VIOLATIONS of deeply-held religious convictions!

I posted elsewhere ...

— — —

To me, this kind of legislation seems to have a lot more to do with OTHER THINGS, other than gays. It seems that the “gay issue” is driving the discussion, but to me, that “gay issue” seems to be a minor point, as compared to ALL of what legislation guaranteeing “Christian Conscience” in business is about.

Unless I’m mistaken about what this kind of bill means, I see this bill as preserving the “conscience” of a Christian owner of a business from serving or doing business with a person who violates that “religious conscience” by who they are or what they represent or what they stand for. SO, in that sense, it is NOT TARGETED at gays, but all sorts of other things that would violate the “Christian’s conscience”!

A sampling of some other things I can think of, in which one would DENY SERVICE to people, would be a group coming in for Pizza who supports ABORTION! That would really violate a Christian’s conscience.

Or, if a Mormon church group came in and had an “after church Pizza gathering” some Sunday afternoon. I would DENY THEM SERVICE as they are one of the largest CULT GROUPS in America ... and as far as I’m concerned Mormons shouldn’t get service from ANY CHRISTIAN BUSINESS WHATSOEVER, ANYWHERE!!

If Mitt Romney were to come in to that Pizza place he SHOULD BE DENIED SERVICE because of clearly being a Mormon!

I would DENY SERVICE to GLENN BECK, too, for his Mormonism!

SO ... it doesn’t appear to be a “gay issue” but a VERY REAL “Religious Conscience” issue and opens the door to CHRISTIAN BUSINESS to serving Christians and not VIOLATING their religious conscience!

What’s unthinkable is that most of those same people sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States end up as traitors.

Ironic that the left is always slamming businesses for being unscrupulous. Until business starts to try asserting their moral and religious scruples. At that point, the left wants businesses to be unscrupulous. The mind of a liberal...an unpenetrable thicket of deceit, desire for control, greed, contradiction and hate.

What a POS. Obama said he opposed gay marriage in 2008, but do you think anyone in the MSM will hold him to that?

Obama is a bonehead or he is pretending to be a bonehead. Either way he is a bonehead.

Wasn't unthinkable when he voted for RFRA in the IL House, HB 2370, which passed unanimously. The image is everywhere, and he is listed as a freaking co-sponsor!

Christians are to live their faith in the public square (a Freedom guaranteed in our Constitution which is unalienable—(can’t remove it or give it away). Our Christian Ethical system (which is the USA Justice System) forces us to condemn sin and NEVER give it a platform or glorify it.

Just Law can never promote Vice and evil, dysfunctional behaviors or welfare (theft of private property) in a true “Justice” System which is in line with our Founding Documents—the Supreme Law of the Land.

The Sodomites are forcing Satanic Ethics into the public square which destroys our “Justice” (virtue) System and creates a Vice System. It is unconstitutional (irrational) law which promotes sodomizing others and calls the dehumanizing behavior “Good”-—or Love—or the same as heterosexual acts (which is simply an ejection of Reason and Science (can’t do that in Just Law).

Rule of Law is based on God’s Laws-—(Higher Law) and NEVER Satanic, pagan, muslim ethics where sodoimizing others is “Good”.
