Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 forbids employment discrimination based on “race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.” When the members of Congress wrote and passed it, they surely thought their meaning was straightforward. But now the meaning of “sex” has been contested all the way up to the Supreme Court.

In Harris Funeral Home, Inc. v. the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the justices must decide if Title VII now bans discrimination on the basis of gender identification. If so, that will impact not just family businesses like Harris, but everything from women’s shelters to single-sex athletic competitions. A girls’ track meet that refused to allow a trans runner to compete could wind up in the same legal hell as one that tried to ban black runners.

Harris Funeral Homes’ long march through the legal system began in 2013 when funeral director Anthony Stephens came back from vacation as Aimee Stephens. Thomas Rost and his wife, co-owners of the family business, say the surprise wouldn’t have been a problem — except that Stephens had agreed to follow a sex-specific dress code: suits for men, dresses and skirts for women, so that funeral directors offer a calm center for grieving families.

Asked to comply with the dress code, Stephens refused. And after long reflection, the Rosts fired Stephens.



Enter the Obama-era EEOC, which sued, insisting that “gender identity” is a facet of “sex” under the law. After several rounds of appeals, the last ruling holds that the EEOC was correct.

The LGBTblahblahblahblahblah agenda is sheer homofascism.

And just like that, millions of American Christians could easily and quickly imagine a future where the law held their traditional, orthodox religious beliefs—the beliefs of the Catholic Church and every significant evangelical denomination in America—in the same regard as it held the views of vile racists. But Christians who had been paying attention knew of this risk well before Obergefell. Christians who had been paying attention had seen a trend where legal activists at all levels of government had been aggressively expanding their regulatory and ideological attacks on religious liberty.

During my legal career defending free speech and religious freedom on campus, I saw more than 100 colleges attempt to de-recognize Christian student groups or eject them from campus for reserving their membership or leadership for Christian students. During the Obama administration, Americans watched his Department of Health and Human Services try to force nuns to facilitate access to contraceptives and abortifacients. Catholic adoption agencies that continued to place children with families according to church teachings faced a choice between closing and violating their deeply held beliefs. Christian creative professionals faced ruinous financial penalties for refusing to use their artistic talents to celebrate events they found offensive.

Yes, American Religious Liberty Is in Peril

A guy parading around in a dress is an insult to women. Hairy men who demand to be identified as women are an insult to women. So-called transgender bathrooms are an insult to women. Get your priorities right.
