Pastor Protection Act - Florida Regulators Gone Wild.

[bodecea]

Pastor Protection Act may arise from gay-marriage ruling

TALLAHASSEE — In the wake of a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage, a proposal by Republican lawmakers called the Pastor Protection Act could fuel a debate during next year's legislative session.
...............​

Walker's petition at change.org calls for a bill that will "be clear that religious leaders and houses of worship can't be forced by the government to violate their faith where marriage is concerned. … Religious leaders in the state of Florida must be absolutely secure in the knowledge that religious freedom is beyond the reach of government or coercion by the courts."
.................​

But Nadine Smith, executive director of the advocacy group Equality Florida, said religious leaders are already protected by the First Amendment.
​

What a waste of The Peoples resources.

If only the republicans actually believed their "smaller government" and "less regulations" mantras.


Talk about your selective politicking.

Our nation was founded on religious freedom.

Because our Founders learned from Europe and the Puritans to NOT let a religion get ahold of government or law-making.

For not letting the government dictate how to worship.

Exactly...within limits. One is not allowed to worship thru human sacrifice, for example.

A Pastor following his faith hurts no one. Homosexuals have plenty of places they can marry.

Where has any church been forced to marry anyone they don't want to? List them please.

No one can force a clergyman to perform a gay wedding ceremony. The Republican lawmakers know this, but they are depending on the retard voters not to know this.

Judging by some of the responses in this topic, they guessed correctly.

Does the Constitution address JUST clergymen?

No, of course not. The 1st is a guarantee to all citizens, not just some.

Here is a list of all the churches that have been forced to marry a couple in this nation:

1.

Thank heavens this legislation came around to solve a nonexistent problem.

Then why are you so angry over a law you consider meaningless?
Never mind, we know why.

Not hardly. Why are you projecting? Never mind, I know why. lol

It's more preemptive

It's more pandering.

Perhaps...gee that entire cake thing comes to mind though

Churches are not, never have been, and, nor should be subject to public accommodation laws. If they did, a Catholic could demand a wedding service in a Synagogue and they would have to comply. I support a church's right to refuse to marry any couple as they see fit it.

You realize if the gays would cease with their quest to be viewed as "normal" this wouldn't be happening. It's sad laws like this are even considered but it's in response to gay's pushing it

We're not angry. We are laughing at your expense.

The lawmakers know you're too stupid to get the joke. They'll get the rube vote for this trick.

Thousands of topics on this website and yet here you are.
Florida is 100% correct in their actions.

I don't have the numbers right in front of me but I would that numbers of gays pushing for churches to be forced to marry them is terrible small. Besides, churches already are willing to marry gays all throughout Florida.

If even one is pushing it then that is why the law is proposed. Churches are under no obligation to marry homosexuals None

Next up, Florida lawmakers spend time passing a law setting up a detailed system documenting illegal aliens....the kind from outer space.

The homosexual agenda is to force Churches to comply.

...lol... and RELIABLY too. He accuses me of posting too many gay threads and yet he's there at every one of them fighting with me and promoting the gay agenda consistently. For someone so sure my threads aren't a threat to the Agenda, he spends an inordinate amount of time making sure I'm ad-hominemed liberally and the topics diverted with help from his pals Syriously and others..

Yes and with frivolous law suites which is what this law is about.
Protecting them from those expensive frivolous court costs- rather than the churches money that would be used for providing for the needy.

Seems like an overreaction to an increabliy small minority of a miniorty. Do we need a law to protect gays from murder b/c some foolish pastor believes it is okay to stone gays to death? Of course not.
