why arent they telling muslims to be calm about it?
calm == shut up and take it. in case youy didn’t know.
This new EO just means companies will have to work even harder to prove they aren’t discriminating. Innocent until proven guilty is a joke to these EO’s.
executive orders only impact those employed under the executive branch.
if you don’t like the orders... leave
I’d also suggest leaving at the most in opportune time
What an idiot. If even the USCCB, the most leftist and squishiest group in the universe, is freaked out by it and issued a formal statement criticizing it and is probably planning a legal challenge, I’d say there’s something to be worried about.
So how does this affect Christian colleges that accept federal aid like federal student loans? Will they be forced to hire gay professors?
So we’re just supposed to trust that the courts and all future Supreme Courts will interpret the First Amendment to carve exceptions to this draconian law? Somehow, I don’t find that too comforting — who knows what leftist lunatics will be appointed to the Supreme Court in the future. I think conservatives and religious believers are right to criticize the lack of a religious exemption, as well as the utterly unworkable and destabilizing concept of “gender” based on anybody’s whim as to their “identity” notwithstanding the objective facts of one’s biological sex. We should not simply accept the government’s imposition of an ideology of “gender” and should oppose it without letup. Manif pour tous!
The Religious Liberty enjoyed by religious institutions, organizations & churches is premised legitimately and completely upon individual's God given unalienable rights NOT in spite of such or in equal measure with such. Individual rights can NOT be surrendered or subjugated second class status because approved collectives agree with government to such an arrangement.
To exempt some to practice under certain limitations what is God given right not to be infringed upon by government is in effect an infringement upon all.
What this EO does is state that the federal government will now engage in its own form of discrimination. In as much as this is in conflict with the Free Exercise clause of the First Amendment it is clearly unconstitutional and Obama should be called out on it. The government, federal or state, has no business in dictating how a free society organizes itself. Pave the roads and then shut up!
