USofA Religious Freedom Signal Boost
I am not necessarily activist oriented, but this needs to be distributed as widely as possible.
Text from the post:
Quote-
"...paganism and witchcraft were never intended to receive the protections of the Religion Clauses"
"In one of their first arguments to the court, the defendants said that certain “traditional” faiths are first tier faiths and that those faiths were meant to have equal rights and protections under the United States Constitution, but that all of the other faiths were second tier faiths, and were not meant to have the same equal rights and protections under the United States Constitution as the first tier faiths.”
Via Patrick M. McCollum; et al., v. California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation; et al.: The current case, which has been in litigation for five years, and is currently before the 9th Circuit, centers on the State of California’s “five faiths” policy."
I got this information from callahanians member ladybrigid who is passing it on from elsewhere.
Excuse me but what is this "My dogma is better than your dogma" crap and why is it being buried by the media who should be makeing more of a stimk about it than who slept with whom and was unfaithful? For my f-list who are of one of the "five faiths" approved of by the CA Department of Corrections and Rehabilitations I paraphrase what should have been asked in Germany in the 30's - What will you do when they do this to your faith in their zeal?
