Amy Coney Barrett Should Recuse Herself From Gay Rights Case, Say Survivors of Her Cultish Religious Group
Yahoo! News ^ | November 21, 2022 | Audra Heinrichs

Oral arguments in what’s being deemed a potential “free speech blockbuster” case won’t begin until next month, but survivors of People of Praise are already pushing Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett to recuse herself from 303 Creative v. Elenis—a case that will have a bearing not just on the future of free speech, but gay rights. The dubious faith group, in which Barrett is said to maintain membership, is known for expelling members who “engage in gay sex” and credible accusations of child sex abuse.

Per a new report from the Guardian, former members of the Indiana-based group have sounded the alarm about Coney Barrett’s ties to People of Praise and their implications on the upcoming legal proceedings: “I don’t believe that someone in her position, who is a member of this group, could put those biases aside, especially in a decision like the one coming up,” said Maura Sullivan, a former longtime member of the People of Praise community in South Bend. Barrett, it’s worth remembering, was identified by The Washington Post as a “handmaid,” or, a high-ranking woman, within the devout conservative group.

People of Praise cultish?!

I used to take my children to Halloween parties in the People of Praise Hall in northern Illinois. They hosted home-schoolers and many of them were there.

What are they? Practicing Roman Catholics with a light charismatic streak. Not our style, but definitely good, solid folks and allies to other good, solid folks.

That’s a shame. See, once you are a Justice, well, nobody can make you do anything. Sucks all around I guess.

They joined a group that didn't approve of homosexuality. They were homosexual. They left the group.

What is this survivor nonsense?

And in the next clause:
They joined a group that didn’t approve of child molesting. They were child molesters. They left the group.

LOL. These are they same people who in their next breath are touting surgical mutilation of underage "trans" [sic] children and teenagers.

So it is not even certain that she is a member. So what's the problem?

They tried, as a group, to break down the door 🚪 of Lot’s house thousands and thousands of years ago.

They wanted to rape the two angels of God.

Nothing has changed.

“The dubious faith group, in which Barrett is said to “

Londo Mollari: “Yes, now that you can leave in. It always scares people.”

And all of those situations where the extreme leftists (pretty much all of the leftists) had major conflict of interest, yet would not recuse themselves.

It is about time we used their rules on them.

Indeed we are.

The Church Age is drawing to a close.

The 7 year Tribulation is coming.

There will be many Tribulation Saints who will refuse the Mark of the Beast and have their heads cut off.

BUT they’ll live forever ♾️.

Maranatha!!

Sorry, Elena Kagan chose to participate in hearing the Affordable Care Act legality case when she was part of its defense while working for the Obama Administration not just while working on the legal team on an associated subject, but as the freaking lead lawyer for the government in that very case. So long as she’s on the court, any idea about recusal for any purpose is stupid.

This “Yahoo News” piece is below the editorial standards of the Weekly World News. Despicable, and she should sue Verizon (Yahoo’s owner) for defamation.

Has anybody EVER HEARD of a liberal judge or justice recusing, regardless of what the case was?
