New York Times columnist Ross Douthat asks for those who oppose religious liberty to drop the facade that they support it:
"...It may seem strange that anyone could look around the pornography-saturated, fertility-challenged, family-breakdown-plagued West and see a society menaced by a repressive puritanism. But it?s clear that this perspective is widely and sincerely held.It would be refreshing, though, if it were expressed honestly, without the ?of course we respect religious freedom? facade.
If you want to fine Catholic hospitals for following Catholic teaching, or prevent Jewish parents from circumcising their sons, or ban Chick-fil-A in Boston, then don?t tell religious people that you respect our freedoms. Say what you really think: that the exercise of our religion threatens all that?s good and decent, and that you?re going to use the levers of power to bend us to your will.
There, didn?t that feel better? Now we can get on with the fight."
