RE: CAtholics are usually not very conservative.

Well, Thomas and Alito are Catholics. So was Scalia.

So, if i won’t bake an abortion celebration cake, then I’m liable?

Weird religious freedom in this country. It’s only free if government agree with my positions.

We have some gutless fools on the Supreme Court. The King of Heaven will deal with them... There is no way that a baker who, from conscience, can cause real harm (unless they first said ‘yes’ and then said ‘no’ without reasonable warning). The “couple” can go to another bakery or even a grocery store. This is a ploy to ram their beliefs on others.

no reason a baker can’t have large posters and Bible quotes clarifying the issue of sodomy in his/her shop

Gorsuch has turned out to be surprisingly solid. Kavanaugh and Barrett have been huge disappointments. Particularly Kavanaugh, as Trump and Republicans went to war for him. Now, he stabs us in the back. The “all female clerks” was a warning sign.

Kavanaugh is the new Ruth Bader Ginsburg


Isn’t it odd how none of the Dem appointments sway over to Conservative viewpoints.

Concur...A business can refuse the right to provide services on the basis of scheduling, work load etc. and for other reasons that do not bear on grounds such as race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, color, age, political affiliation, ethnicity, religion, and disability...Admittedly, not forthrightly standing up for one’s beliefs, as Ms Stutzman did, is distasteful and not possible for some. But, as for me, dealing with those trying to prove a point at my expense, while cramming their beliefs down my throat, is a no-go. I can be just as devious as those who want to use me as a scapegoat.

They tried to jump to the Supreme Court...rather than go through the state courts first...appeals etc...That’s why they didn’t take it. There was no ruling.

Has Kavanaugh ever split from Roberts?

Ever?

The dirty work was done in the selection of names submitted to Trump.

I said Kavanaugh was going to do this.

With exception of 3 Justices, most gutless SC in History.

Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube did as they please.

Manchin said that Corporations will get behind the Voting Act (Scam) and when they do, it will be passed, and the SCOTUS will support.

He essentially said that big Corporations rule everything, with those comments.

I might have to reconsider if Christine Blasey Ford was right about him.

Disgust for the Supreme Court justices that refused to hear this. It appears that the people that Trump nominated to the court are of the same cloth as Roberts.

But this case should never have happened in the first place. I read elsewhere that Stutzman talked to the people she refused to provide services for, explained her decision, and that they (supposedly) went away without so much as a complaint. Turns out they ran right to the nearest lawyer and betrayed her, suing her instead.

This case smells of a set up from the first day, just like the baker in Colorado. Religious liberty is under assault and the courts are aiding and abetting that assault. America is doomed.

See my tagline.

Noting that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect politically correct LGBT "rights" like the early states did with the rights that they famously protected with the Bill of Rights, activist justices on the misguided Roberts Court seem to be taking advantage of the following situation to wrongly override enumerated rights with so-called LGBT “rights.”

Not only have the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties divided the Senate, effectively giving activist justices immunity from being removed from office for ignoring the Constitution, but such justices are also arguably taking advantage of the following constitutional gridlock.

Not only is the post-17th Amendment ratification, Democratic-controlled Congress wrongly letting the Court get away with legislating politically correct, anti-Christian policy from the bench, as opposed to Congress doing its duty to remove activist justices, but Congress has likewise been ignoring its constitutional duties in the following way.

Congress has been stubbornly refusing to use its 14th Amendment powers to make penal laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment protections of religious expression and free speech in the example of this thread.

Excerpted from the 14th Amendment:

The remedy for corrupt federal government that has allegedly been stolen from the people by Democratic elite vote-counting fraud...

Patriots need to primary candidates for federal and state offices who don't clearly promise to remove bad-apple judges and justices from the bench, and protect constitutionally enumerated rights from abridgment by the states.

You realize the ONLY two reliably conservative justices who DID want to hear the case (Alito and Thomas) are Catholic, right?
