"Religious freedom restoration. Prohibits a governmental entity from substantially burdening a person's exercise of religion, even if the burden results from a rule of general applicability, unless the governmental entity can demonstrate that the burden: (1) is in furtherance of a compelling governmental interest; and (2) is the least restrictive means of furthering the compelling governmental interest. Provides a procedure for remedying a violation. Specifies that the religious freedom law applies to the implementation or application of a law regardless of whether the state or any other governmental entity or official is a party to a proceeding implementing or applying the law. Prohibits an applicant, employee, or former employee from pursuing certain causes of action against a private employer."
Gov. Mike Pence signs 'religious freedom' bill in private
I see no issues with this bill, and yet the gay right activists are in full force once again attacking religious freedom.
If gay rights are truly so important, maybe they can satisfy the compelling interest to burden religion. Are they afraid they can't? If sexual orientation is truly the same as race, then the compelling interest should easily be met.
I think the homosexuals know that sexual orientation isn't nearly the same as race.
