Ohio LGBT Group Announces Plans to Target Churches for Homosexual Weddings

So let me get this straight. If the KKK wanted to rent the facilities of a black Baptist Church to hold recruitment meetings, the Church would be obliged to rent it to them? I would think such a request would be met quite appropriately with outrage by Ohio legislators... and rightly so. So how is this situation materially different from a Christian community refusing to rent its facilities for an activity that fundamentally contradicts its beliefs? It might seem like an odd analogy to use to illustrate my point, but I think it is perfectly apt. The KKK is a legal organization permitted to hold recruitment meetings just as an LGBT group is legal and allowed to celebrate a marriage. So why would the former case be offensive to the point where a church would be protected from renting its facilities while the church would be forced to do it?

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p.
