Freedom of Religion - Only at home!
Once again into the breach dear friends, that breach being in the Bill Of Rights. People do not want to accept the idea that the Bill of Rights were meant to be inviolable, not subject to any act of Congress, the Judiciary or the Executive Branches of government. The Bill of Rights are in fact a list of things the government is forbidden to alter. Yet, ... the Congress, the Courts and the states continue to amend these rights:
‘Religion in private’ OK, declares ACLU
New limits on Christians leave family groups reeling.
Governor Ritter
Colorado’s new state law that apparently was based on the belief that free speech rights are not unalienable and they sometimes must be restricted is scaring residents who now fear expressing their opinions in public.
WND reported the law, SB200, which was promoted as an “anti-discrimination” plan favoring alternative sexual lifestyles and gender perceptions, has made it a criminal offense to discriminate against someone based on those lifestyles or perceptions.
“This desire to limit the constitutionally guaranteed right to the ‘free exercise of religion’ can be seen in Cathryn Hazouri’s, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union, testimony given before the Colorado House Judiciary Committee,” the group said.
“One may practice one’s religion in private; however, once a religious person comes into the public arena, there are limitations in how the expression of their religion impacts others,” she had said.
It is not just the ACLU, nor liberal governors and legislators; much like Canada to the north, it is increasingly becoming the sentiment of the American people that all forms of religious beliefs and practice should be confined to the home and church, and in the latter case even in the pulpit to preach against sins like abortion or homosexuality constitute hate crimes.
You better get used to more and more repressive laws against Christian (they will never dare apply these laws against Islam) beliefs and practices in the public square and as part of the price we will pay is that, your little girl gets to examine the hairy penis of some guy, be he straight or gay, in the same restroom in public facilities, even at school. Isn’t our brave new, politically correct world great?
The First Amendment protection for religious worship is as inviolable and important to our liberty as Free political Speech, a free press or private gun ownership. If you are willing to sacrifice one upon the altar of political correctness, then none of these rights are safe at all.
