I’m not certain what your legal argument is, Walter.
The fact is that in Massachusetts, a service that was provided by a religiously based organization is no longer provided, because the state said the organization could not follow its conscience.
If no one else here finds that small baby-step just a tad bit frightening, then I don’t know what to say.
No, I find it no different than church schools, who have broken state and federal laws in the way they discipline children or have abused children.
No, I find it no different than church day care, who have broken state and federal laws in the way they discipline children or have abused children.
It has happened, and I am very happy that there are laws and agencies that can shut these sort of problems down.
And I never said that it is some doctrine of some religion to hurt children, but it happens.
Following your logic, then the church should not be sued for the sexual abuse that clergy have done to children.
