The separation of religion and hate: Attacking the protection of freedom

[William769]

Almost since the days of Stonewall and the decriminalization of homosexuality between consenting adults, I have been amongst those who have warned that historically, countries which accepted or tolerated same-sex relatiThis is one of the main reasons why recognition of same-sex marriage is so important. If the state recognizes the right of those couples to consent to marrying each other, they attract all the social recognition and benefits of marriage, and it becomes extremely difficult to deny their equality in the secular state.

However, there is a real threat from those forces who disapprove of human rights equality, because of their beliefs, religious or otherwise.

That threat is not solely aimed at the LGBTQ community, it has much larger number of targets and a wider agenda.

1. This is going to be one of those years.

I hope many will be struck down, but there are going to be a few that get by and it will be a process to get rid of them.

2. If I'm not mistaken I think a similar bill in Indiana was recently defeated.

Between these hate laws & the fight for Marriage equality going on, it for sure going to be a roller coaster ride.

I also just read where the bill in OK is being rewritten because of whats going on in AR now and it won't be reintroduced till later this year.

Rollercoaster! That's the word I was looking for! Yes, it is going to be step forward, step back.
