https://nedediciones.com/uncategorized/6lsr7tm6z4p From an article supporting religious liberty.
Alprazolam 2Mg Online Lately, religious liberty has been looking like the freedom that eats everyone else’s for breakfast. In Arizona and other states, fundamentalists said they were acting in the name of religious liberty when trying to pass laws that would allow businesses to refuse to serve people based on theological or moral objection (people who just happened to be gay). And in the Supreme Court challenges to the Affordable Care Act contraception mandate, two companies run by conservative Christians, Hobby Lobby and Conestoga Wood, argue that the government can’t require them to provide health insurance that covers birth control because that would violate the religious beliefs of their businesses. In other cases making their way through the courts, religiously affiliated groups like Notre Dame and the charity Little Sisters of the Poor are objecting to the form their exemption from the contraception mandate takes, because, again, of religion. …
But rooting against Hobby Lobby or anti-gay bills doesn’t have to mean rooting against religious liberty. When Congress passed RFRA, liberals helped take the lead. The law was a disapproving response to a 1990 Supreme Court ruling in the case Employment Division v. Smith, a suit brought by two drug counselors who were fired after taking peyote in a Native American religious ceremony and couldn’t get unemployment benefits because their use of the drug violated state law. Could the state do this, or did their constitutional right to religious freedom mean they should be allowed to use peyote in a religious ceremony without penalty? …
https://mandikaye.com/blog/3nialqckvty All too many Christians assume that only conservatives support religious freedom. And, they would be quite wrong. It may surprise some reading this blog that the ACLU has actually, and up to the present, defended several religious liberty cases. What there is, is a divide between the interpretation of two different clauses in the Constitution of the United States of America. One clause is the establishment clause and the other clause is the religious freedom clause. The problem is that all too many Christians do not see them as different clauses and are upset about the interpretation of the establishment clause.
https://oevenezolano.org/2024/08/d39cdyyy5zw Here is the problem. There is no one answer to the balance between the two. Current conservative Christians are arguing that even if they are a non-religious company in the public marketplace that they have the right to refuse service to anyone they wish to simply on a claimed religious belief. Needless to say, there is a counterargument, one that is the official decision of the USA Supreme Court, that a business engaging in public business cannot refuse service to anyone based simply on something about their identity or behavior outside the business. A private club may indeed do so, even if it is a secular club. Thus, women need not be admitted to a private golf course, if it is a membership only course.
Alprazolam Purchase This should not be a surprising decision. The Court is trying to find a balance between the religious freedom clause and the establishment clause. One need only look at the 1950s and before to see the horror that was present in many parts of this country. There are photographs of signs from the North that say that no Irish will be served in a particular public establishment. There are photographs of signs from the South that prohibit “Negroes.” The eventual decision was that businesses that dealt with the public could not prohibit certain customers based merely on personal belief. However, private clubs or private organizations do have the freedom to refuse membership to anyone to whom they wish to deny membership.
https://homeupgradespecialist.com/35yc6dk51aw Every year there are cases based on those two types of ruling. Inevitably, religious people will cite instances in which a public venue attempts to limit their rights. Inevitably, secularists will complain about being forced to participate in a public observance in which private religion is injected. Both type of cases are actually good examples of the violation of one clause or another. Each side is able to cite organizations that have gone too far to one side or another. Worse, each side of the argument extrapolates from those individual cases to claim that the entire judicial and/or political superstructure is getting ready to remove their rights. That is very wrong thinking by both sides.
https://solomedicalsupply.com/2024/08/07/2y73mbrciy What is true is that we are losing balances in this country. Each side is completely convinced that their side is in danger. Each side claims that the other side is ever so mistaken in believing that they are being unconstitutionally treated. Yet, I have read about students being asked to take the cross off of their neck. And, I have been present at a July 4th celebration in a small town here in Alabama in which a local preacher basically preached a salvation sermon as though that is what the Founding Fathers wanted. Neither side is willing to find the balances between the two clauses. Right now there are cases by Hobby Lobby and an order of nuns regarding the Affordable Care Act. I predict that Hobby Lobby will lose and the nuns will win. I base this on prior case-law. And, I know that this will lead to claims of both victory and defeat by both sides. Sadly, there will be no attempt to come to an understanding.
https://aiohealthpro.com/bt2rsz4mait I do not have a good solution. I can tell you that we are losing the balances that were established at the beginning of this country. That can lead to no good ending.

https://merangue.com/8bnw4d7e I don’t have a solution, either. But I do now that 2014 America is a very different country from 1787 America when the Constitution was adopted. Back then we were a more homogeneous nation with regards our thinking on many principles of liberty, more like many libertarians today; by contrast, today we’re all over the map.
If the Supreme Court interprets the Constitution based on the conservative ideal of “original intent” as opposed to the liberal notion of “growing understanding” then Hobby Lobby would win. Whether that will happen or not remains to be seen. Where it all leads from there I don’t know. Either way I don’t think it will go well in the long run, for the battle for the heart of the peoples of this country is far from over.

Fr. Ernesto Obregon says
The original intent of the Constitution was to permit slavery and to have slaves counted as a 3/5 person for purposes of representation in the Congress. I am not in favor of original intent precisely because the original intent of some parts of our Constitution were immoral and anti-Christian.

https://nedediciones.com/uncategorized/z4hopbd Yes, I understand that. But that’s why the Constitution was created to be amended. The 13th-15th amendments corrected slavery. It appears to me then that the “original intent” of the framers was to amend what was missing or needed to be changed. To when the Constitution is interpreted based on “growing understanding” then we are at the whim of whatever Supreme Court justices might deem appropriate. In such a case the Costitution becomes meaningless.

https://www.clawscustomboxes.com/epuztvl2dh What are your thoughts on cases like Christian photographers and bakers having to be made to service gay weddings which violates their beliefs?
Fr. Ernesto Obregon says
I think a good case that might even win could be made in those specific instances. The easier case would be for the photographer that must attend a gay wedding. The photographer would be being forced to be present at an event that clearly violates the photographer’s moral code. The more difficult (maybe impossible) case would be for the baker since the baker is not forced to actually participate in the wedding. However, I doubt any winning case could be made for the motel owner who refuses to rent to a gay couple, since all motel owners are quite aware that they frequently rent to non-married heterosexual couples.
https://oevenezolano.org/2024/08/qqc9g8h3v1q You see, Christian owners of motels (and in other industries) have not enforced any ban on fornicators or adulterers. Suddenly, they now “get religion” when it has to do with gay couples. This makes for an easy charge of hypocrisy and/or bias against only some sexual sins. That is what will make that type of case unlikely to succeed.

Xanax Online Next Day Delivery Let me come at this another way. We are all called to a particular vocation, butcher, backer, candlestick maker, etc.. That vocation is given by God to do two things: 1. provide for my own bodily needs and that of my family and 2. to serve my neighbor. Who is my neighbor? It not just those who hold to my convictions. I am to freely serve all who ask for my particular service. I do not see how it glorifies Christ in any way for me to claim some sort of religious conscious pangs and then refuse to serve my neighbor. Should a plumber fix the plumbing in the house of a gay couple. And why do we pick on only two items: abortion and homosexuality. How about refusing service to a venture capitalist who invests in blood diamonds? If I am a roofer should I should refuse to put a roof on the home of a doc who performs abortions? Where would all this end? Will an atheist dentist refuse to do my teeth because I am a Christian?
I believe that the discussion is based on false premises and that we are allowing our so called conscious pangs to dictate things rather than the love of God in Christ Jesus which calls me to serve my neighbor. We have an on going debt of love that we must pay and we pay it by serving not just our friends who agree with us but even our ENEMIES whether those are cultural enemies or military enemies (Romans 13:8-10).
This may now sound like a contradiction but as a called and ordained pastor representing Christ I cannot perform a wedding for a same sex couple because it would not be honoring Christ or serving my neighbor and there is no command of Christ that I as a pastor must marry anyone. I am called to baptize, teach, feed and care for the baptized congregation I am called to serve.
God be merciful to us all.
