There's quite a buzz in the media about the #Indiana new #ReligiousFreedomRestorationAct, or #RFRA. I'm no lawyer but, apparently, the new law states that the government can't intrude on a person's religious liberty unless there's a compelling interest to do so. In other words, if a business feels that doing business with a certain group such as #homosexuals, violates it's religious values, they can't be compelled to do it. Opponents feels that will allow business to discriminate. Supporters of the law say that not discriminating against homosexuals is a slippery slope. Before you know it, you start wearing flowers in your hair and watching TV shows like #ModernFamily and #Will&Grace.
In a totally unrelated news item, rumor has it that the Indiana Chapter of the #KKK has filed for status as a church. Allegedly, a spokesperson for the chapter said that the KKK has long held traditional #Christian values, except that “love thy neighbor” part and even uses a cross as a sacred symbol. They burn it to signify the #HolySpirit descending down on the white folk. The spokesperson went on to allegedly say that the #Bible states that Jesus died to save all the whites and not blacks, yellows, reds, purples, gays, #Catholics, #Jews, #Communists and #Democrats.
Also in the news of Indiana, the Indiana chapter of the #Nazi Party has allegedly also petitioned to be classified as a religious organization. Rumor has it that a spokesperson said that the Nazi Party has always been religious, believing that the #Führer is God himself. The #Swastika is the Party's cross. They believe that that #Aryan race is rightfully the superior race and should dominate all others. Therefore, doing business with non Aryans would violate their religious values.
Not to be out done, the #atheists in Indiana have also allegedly petitioned to be declared a church. They don't believe in God and they aren't too crazy about people either. According to their values, Anyone who believes in God is stupid and doing business with anyone who believes in a God is also stupid and therefore a violation of their religious (or non-religious) values.
None of these group would deny or confirm the rumors, mainly because I never contacted them. More to follow I'm sure. Let me know what you hear at http://monteranderson.wordpress.com.
