Well done SCOTUS<\/a>.\u00a0 Naturally some are crying partisanship, despite it being the rarest of events in these divided days \u2013 a unanimous decision.\u00a0 This will go ill for post-Christian and post-modern progressives, who were having wet dreams over the thought of finally being able to force all religions to conform to their dogmas or face the consequences.\u00a0 Barry Lynn is, naturally, crying the blues.\u00a0 He\u2019s been one of the proudest proponents of the new Values Based Bill of Rights (if you don\u2019t obey liberal values,\u00a0you don\u2019t have rights). I have no doubt that future attempts to crush the freedom not to be progressive will be made, but the unanimous nature of the decision will make it tough.\u00a0 That\u2019s just so not-what-happens today.\u00a0 That shows just how out of step such farce organizations as Americans United for Oppression of Non-Liberal Religions<\/strike> Separation of Church and State are from what the Constitution and the traditional rule of American law intended.\u00a0 Again, well done SCOTUS.\u00a0 Way to stand up for religious liberty and freedom of belief in an age where so many want to end both.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
