Business SUES Oregon church over refusal to allow homosexual event

I think everyone should be able to be sued.

Bigots must pay the piper also.

The church has every right to decide whom they want to use their venues or not. This case will likely get laughed out of court.

By using homophobic religious bigotry?

I don’t care what their reasoning is. If they don’t want to rent out their venues to people that wear shorts then that is their right.

Even if their reasoning is homophobic religious bigotry? A dress code is perfectly legal.

Absolutely. Even if their reasoning is homophobic religious bigotry. You are free to rent out a building not owned by that church.

You don't get to deny rights to a religious organization, just because you believe in fascism.
 
No it doesn't.

Yeah, it does. The First Amendment expressly forbids the government from passing any law that abridges the free exercise of religion. Don't like it, move to one of your socialist shitholes you love so much.

You are ignorant. Renting a building DOES NOT effect/affect free exercise of religion.

Yes it does. Demanding that a religious group provide a service for ANYONE that they disapprove of, is a direct assault on their freedom to express themselves. As usual, you are flat wrong.

How is renting a building providing a religious service?





Because it is up to them how their property is used, that's why. Your anti religious, secular attacks not withstanding. Private Property means PRIVATE PROPERTY!

These same left-wingers, if we demand that we can use their private residence for a church service, they would be having a fit.

But fascism is only bad when non-left-wingers do it.
 
But in a recent lawsuit, the Portland, Ore., business says it it was only following orders from the church that owned the event space, which had inserted a "morals clause'" in their contract that forbade the center from hosting "offensive" events.

If the Church of LGBT wins this case, it means the Christian church would have to also allow the Church of Satan to hold events there too.

So we should be able to sue everyone who tries to prevent our free practice of religion? I can't wait. Religion organization have hundreds of millions of people to sue the tiny 2% that are LGBT. And hundreds of millions of dollar to back it.

By all means. If you want a legal free for all, we can do that, and you will lose. Freedom of religion is in the constitution. LGBT is not. Be careful what you wish for honey. You may not like the results of what you ask.

How is renting a building contrary to freedom of practicing religion?

You have to ask that?

The building as a sanctuary, is for the purpose of being used for actions that fit the religious conduct of the organization that owns it.

Thus they can rent it out in accordance with their beliefs. Using a church building, for evil actions, would be in violation of those religious standards.

It's that simple.

Under your business license, you can't discriminate because of somebody's sexual orientation.

It's that simple.

A business, any business, cannot discriminate because of sexual orientation. That's the law. It doesn't matter if it's a religious organization or not.

Not true. The church would have to not rent their facilities.

There's nothing in the Constitution about sexual orientation. There is about recognized religion. When your local PA laws are tested, they will fail.

Brace yourselves accordingly LGBT cult members. Either that or quickly apply for tax exempt status.
 
This is how the Regressives start tearing down Christianity. Smart tactic, give 'em that.

So a gay-cult facility who rents out their Hall for events cannot say no to a group of Christians holding an event that proclaims in a huge banner across the oversized front doors "Homosexuality is a sin unto God!"?

OK. But again, there's no protection whatsoever in the US Constitution for regular men and women giving themselves an erroneous identity based by what they habitually do in their bedrooms, or in the case of "gay pride parades", on public streets where children are viewing.....

There is protection for recognized religion though. Have you gotten tax exempt status yet? Your local come-lately cult-PA laws when tested against things like religion that actually have Constitutional protection, are going to fall flat on their face.

A very important distinction is to be made here. Pope Francis DID NOT say that these sexual deviants' behaviors should be embraced. All sinners are welcomed to come reform themselves under the Eye of God. They should walk through the doors, receive sacrament and then the priest should turn to Jude 1 and Romans 1 & begin the sermon.

We all knew it was coming folks! Give these cultural marxists an inch they will take the ENTIRE THING! Just like with gun control give an inch they will not stop until they have taken EVERY gun...they won't stop here until EVERYONE business,church,person abides by their definition of what's right and allowed.

If you're in business to serve the public, you have to follow the laws regulating that. Rent the place to the people, and while they are at it, they need to get in the kitchen and bake a damn cake too.

methinks the SC will soon give a decision disagreeing with that.

Church owns it. Church is NOT a business which is why it isn't taxed and the same rules don't apply. Just like with religious schools.
If they want to discriminate, then they should give up their tax-exemption. If all the taxpayers are going to pay their property tax all taxpayers should have access to the property.

So a baker that pays taxes should be allowed to discriminate?

Or, conversely, if the group of regular men and women who coalesce around a faith of habitual deviant sex acts (some private, some public..."gay pride parades") want special protections for their behaviors-as-identity, then they need to apply for tax-exempt status. Because there is nothing innate about what these habitual sex deviants picked up along the way as behaviors.

And there is nothing in the US Constitution protecting regular men and women doing deviant sex acts and then subjectively assigning their behaviors as "a protected identity". If there was, then all regular men and women who felt they were "oriented" towards any type of habitual deviant behavior should and must also be protected in exactly the same way. Say goodbye to the penal code system if that's the case.
