What is Bay View? A public entity or a religious community?

Wow. I didn’t realize what it was.

You have to know people who own there. I do and was invited if I wanted to buy there.

It is beautiful.

Not my thing though.

How is what they are doing any different than say...Amish country? Or that Islamic village in Pennsylvania?

I have no issue with them requiring Christianity to live in their town.

Are the houses actually owned or on a 99 year lease which is normal for people who "buy" cabins on church campgrounds?

My church had a campground and you are not allowed to lease unless you are a member in good standing.

Was the entire Methodist Chautauqua of Bay View a private enclave bought and owned by the Methodist Church, and continuing as not a city government but a private homeowners association with the deed restriction covenants continued by the private voluntary act of those who chose to buy into the home-owners-association of Bay View.

“Non-descrimination” Constitutionally is about what the Federal government is not allowed to do, because for the law to do that would be the law acting differently toward some citizens, compared to others, in a discriminatory (making preferential choices) manner.

But none of that applies to our private choices that we voluntarily enter into in our private associations. It is not a moral question of right or wrong as to “racial” or “religious” discrimination. That is and can be addressed in our Liberty-based social actions. And it is not a legal question because it is not by acts of government, but by our private choices in private associations. Yes, privately we can “discriminate”.
