Defiance of the law is not in question.
If one is not going to condone a behavior or a lifestyle for religious reasons, then they do not have to do so, under our constitution if it is listed as a tenet of their religion
But they can’t say they’re not performing a service they would do for others for their religion if the religion doesn’t object or if they are not practicing their religion otherwise. I mean they can, but if pressed in court, they’ll lose
They cannot refuse service out of hatred and win in court
If the gays are pushing this unfairly they’re mean, I guess, but not illegal.
There’s no reason to go to jail if ones religion backs them up. If the judge rules against the catechism, then that’s the time you’re talking about
But that hasn’t happened
It’s the going to court part people don’t want to do
They have to have an impeccable lifestyle. Chick film a. Hobby lobby, both of whom are not opened Sundays, btw, I mean you’d have to start there. People don’t want to close Sundays. But in the Catholic Church, disregarding a commandment, in this case, keeping holy the sabbath, is a mortal sin. There’s he’ll to pay. Being open every Sunday is way up there ahead of participating in a gay wedding, as going against the catechism. They’d lose in court
It becomes a matter of practicing ones faith, if one wants to use it for protection
The little sisters of the poor are in court to not have to participate in intrinsically evil practice of birth control
This is awful
how many shopowners are ready to go under scrutiny applicable to these nuns? That’s what it will take. You follow your religion so you don’t want to serve openly gay people? Ok. Well in court they’ll examine your general lifestyle against that catechism you’re calling on.
I would think
That’s how the enemy works. It leads one into defying ones faith and tgen puts one right into shame leaving one without that faith as something to use for defense
If the little sisters are ruled against and go to jail for noncompliance that’s a whole lot different from someone going to jail with no record of faith to back them up in court.
The gays are pushing this. Ok that’s the way of the world The bad guys win when the good guys act weak
Actually, it did last week or so in the Azucar Bakery case, in which the judge referred to the Bible's advice to "love the sinner, hate the sin" as discriminatory and hateful speech. Seems we're not allowed to hate anything, even sin. Pastors have been jailed in Canada for reading the Bible's advice against homosexual behavior. It's coming here.
