You know I like the Acton quote. It's an oldie but a goodie. But why does the rest of that blog give me a 'War On Christmas!!!11' vibe?

Anyhow. You seem to be stuck on to the 'christian beliefs' part.

Frankly, I'm getting more curious about the company's action, in regard to their health coverage for their employees.

I mean reading some of the bits from this,
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-...obby-case/

This in particular is something that gave me some pause.

Quote:
...Many of the groups supporting the government's interpretation of this case also bring up what a decision in favor of Hobby Lobby would mean in the future. What other religious protections will corporations argue for?

I mean this was\is hilarious in cartoon form.

But it'd probably be less funny if it happened in our actual world.

Episode recap can be found here.

" As Movementarianism gains popularity, Mr. Burns decides to start his own religion, jealous of The Leader's tax-exempt status (claiming the $3 a year he already pays for taxes is outragous). "




Quote:
And, on your advocacy of Asatru, did you see the SCOTUS ruling on Cutter v. Wilkinson?

Did you also read the part where it's talking about when someone is in an institution (such as a prison)?

It might be just me here, but the PDF you yourself linked, points to a larger idea that rights and freedoms are not always absolutes and unconditional.

Something something....nuance and context wasn't it?
