Hi Jake:
Can you honestly explain why it is ok
for an Atheist to sue to remove a cross from a public building, at taxpayers' expense,
but not ok for Christians to defend their beliefs from imposition or offense.
If this is not some political stage of backlash in a process of developing as a society,
then why has "religious freedom" flipped the other way,
from defending religious practice from regulation or imposition by govt
to the opposite of defending against perceived religious bias by "dominant groups"
such as the Christian, conservative, White or wealthy "as a class."
Fowler recognized stages in spiritual development.
Doesn't the "same human psychology" apply to political development?
Can we be HONEST this is happening?
Or do we "need to go through denial and projection"
as part of the stages and process as well?
Is this just another stage also?
Thanks, Jake
Not trying to pick on you, but somehow trust you to be honest.
I've got my own biases also, and just trying to be honest about those also.
Want to know "who on this board" is able to step outside and call out
our biases for what they are. And be ok admitting it instead of excluding anyone
who has the opposite bias going on. Can't we just deal with each other anyway?

Waiting on jakes response.

answered aboveCan you explain to me why it is okay for Atheists to sue and defend themselves from religious imposition, but not okay for Christians to do the same?
if this case were about MUSLIMS bringing suit,
then wouldn't the LEFT politically side with the Muslims, and wouldn't the RIGHT suddenly back off from religious freedom under the Constitution?
Question for the Obamunists: their burden is to show that the government has a compelling interest in forcing the Hobby Lobby folks to put aside their religious convictions.

Hobby Lobby is a corporation. It can't have convictions.
Unless you're claiming that corporations and the people who run them are the same, thus destroying the corporate veil, and allowing all corporate owners and CEO's to be sued personally when their corporation errs.
That is, we liberals would be overjoyed to see a SC ruling that the people running the corp and the corp are the same thing.
Thanks for your help with that. A warning, your corporate masters might not be pleased with the colossal magnitude of the bungling you've displayed here.
The qualifier for the OP is false.
Let's move along.
The owners of Hobby Lobby and Conestoga Wood Specialties don't have a problem with offering insurance that covers most forms of birth control, but they aren't willing to cover emergency contraceptives like Plan B or ella -- or IUDs. Hobby Lobby contends its "religious beliefs prohibit them from providing health coverage for contraceptive drugs and devices that end human life after conception."
And yet, Hobby Lobby stocks their shelves with products from China where abortion is mandatory
They feel free to impose their religious beliefs on their employees but not their suppliers
"Not one word in the Affordable Care Act guarantees health plans will cover birth control products. There is no right. President Obama and his Secretary of Health and Human Services added that requirement by regulation. Women have a constitutionally protected right to use birth control, but nothing guarantees that they can get it from an employer.
The distinction between a regulation and a law is no small matter. As Hobby Lobbys lawyer stressed in his closing statement, a statute, in this case Congresss Religious Freedom Restoration Act, trumps a regulation.
Congress passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act in 1993 expressly to shield believers such as the Green family from any government requirements that would impinge on their ability to practice their faith."
