Yeh, I think so. Religious expression and I think an influence of religion over society, politics, economy should be normalized.I personally feel mixed but it could be put to good use in discriminating against other faiths that are false. I could refuse service towards methodists because i disagree with baby baptism. I could discriminate against jews because of their background. It opens up so many possibilities. Conservatives and liberals how to you feel about it?
Redundant at best. Supposedly there's already a Federal version. So the only reason to have a State version is if it let's them do things the Federal one does not.
Shouldn't even have the Federal version in my opinion because 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.' The concern isn't even homosexual or racial discrimination so much as what happens when some cult wants to assert their cult-religious rights? Gonna let people have sex with children because their religion says that's okay? Use cannabis like the Rastafarian one says? Take 5 breaks at work to pray like Islam says?
What about hospitals, many of which are religious? Can they begin to refuse to treat sinners or even admit them?
Wanna be religious hey that's swell, you go do that. But the law and government shouldn't be in the business of protecting religious expression. That's on you and your church. Open the door to government defining and enabling religous expressions, where does it end?
