Actually, except for the gag order, which violates Article I Sec. 8 in your extract from the Oregon Constitution, the commissioner’s actions may not have violated the Oregon Constituition.

Freedom of worship and freedom of religious opinion are what the left wants to turn free exercise of religion into, not something that actually determines how you live your life, for instance causing one declining to pay for abortions or to provide artistic or culinary services for something one believes is an abomination. If all Quakers had is freedom of worship and of religious belief, they’d have been thrown in the stockade for living according to their pacifist beliefs during WWII, rather than given jobs as corpsmen. If all you do is worship and believe, the left might leave you alone. Try to live according to a belief that’s at odds with their vision of a secular utopia and they’ll persecute you, the First Amendment be damned.
