So you don't think we are or ever have been a "Christian Nation", is that it?
Our founders were deeply religious men and this nation would never have been born without the convictions of the founders that God's providential hand was guiding them.
It wasn't until the late 1950's that people got the idea that the first amendment prohibited such things as prayer in school or prayers by the coaches of a football team before a game.
The courts have steered this country into a position where it is now a crime to have a religious conviction. People who read and believe Romans Chapter 1 are now in danger of losing their ability to get a job or keep one.
We are supposed to be a government of the people, by the people and for the people. But at this point in history, Christians need not apply.
I think it is going to be very difficult to prevail with a religious liberty argument. She wasn’t conscripted, she was elected to perform an administrative duty which by necessity must be performed impartially, this was understood when the job was accepted, as well it should be. A far better argument, both tactically as well as more justifiably, is to reject the illegal order of the court which no one is bound to obey. IANAL, but that’s the way I see it.
