The left wants to FORCE those of certain religious convictions to acquiesce to their beliefs. How can't that be an unpleasant thought?
"We have seen how swiftly the demands have moved from tolerance to compulsory approbation of behavior historically rejected as contrary to morality and faith by virtually all the great religious traditions of the world," wrote Robert George, who teaches constitutional law at Princeton. "And now it is not only approbation that is demanded, but active participation."
"Church leaders must be made to take homosexuality off the sin list," gay philanthropist Mitchell Gold told New York Times columnist Frank Bruni.
That won't happen. The faithful will never submit, said Yuval Levin, because "religious freedom is not the freedom to do what you want, but a freedom to do what you must."
