CNS News ^ | February 25, 2020 | Craig Bannister

Openly-gay Democrat presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg says he supports religious liberty – but, “not past the point where it is being used” by religious organizations to refuse to hire or serve LGBTQ people.

“That freedom ends where you begin to invoke it to harm other people” who violate your organization’s religious doctrine by not hiring or serving them, Buttigieg told a CNN town hall on Monday.

When religious freedom ends, that will be the final straw in “a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce us under absolute Despotism.” It would be prudent for the totalitarian thug class to get out of their elitist echo chamber and find out how important obedience to God is to normal, decent Americans.

Buttgiggity just announced he’s against the first(?) amendment. Plus, he said he’s not Christian, like it was in doubt.

And it's stuff like this that explains why God burned to death two cities full of them.

So he who has been loud about his “Christianity” says there is a limit to being a Christian? I understand. He is a liar about his faith and will answer for it some day.

She would fall under the BBW category but the second B might be a stretch!

Mayor Pete, Mayor Pete:

I think I am a Christian, and want to come out.

How do I do that?

The fags want to force religious groups to hire fags in the name of 'freedom' as defined by the fags.

I find that rather ironic, hence the 'iron y' graphic

He will put Christians in camps is what is going to happen.

Biden has said he will have Christians classified as terrorists and put under surveillance by Homeland Security.

No Christian should be voting for a Democrat. Any Democrat.

Uh yeah, I don’t think “not hiring someone” actually constitutes harming them. The baseline is you don’t get hired. Getting hired is a step up, not the other way around. Sorry, entitled snowflake.

Government Leftist always want to change everything.
Mostly force people they don’t agree with to do what they want.
Not their job...or shouldn’t be their job.

He is an Episcopalian. Episcopalians are NOT Christians. They are a counterfeit cult, mostly mimicking Catholicism, but you look into what they believe, they have disavowed most orthodox Christian teachings, including those on sin, repentance, living a Christian life, sexual morality, the nature of God and the Trinity, the meaning of baptism, and so on.

It has nothing to do with fruitness or religion Pete, it’s that you are an arschloch.

“Religious Freedom ‘Ends’ When Religious Groups Refuse to Hire LGBTQ Employees”

Yet on the flip side, gays try to destroy Christian businesses.

Freedom of association should also include the freedom to not associate.
